The Idlewyld Inn is graced with history, charm, elegance and a fine
pedigree. More than 125 years old, the mansion started life as a private
home for a prominent businessman and sportsman—Charles Smith Hyman—a
gentleman who listed among his credits, the position of former mayor of
London and cabinet minister in Sir Wilfrid Laurier's government. Lovers of
the game of bridge will be intrigued to learn that Hyman is also credited
with introducing the game of bridge to Canada.
With one elegant foot in the past and the other in the present, Idlewyld Inn
is an oasis of comfortable luxury in the midst of London’s “old south”
community. The Idlewyld’s graciously appointed guest rooms effectively
combine vintage furnishings with modern amenities. Please visit our web site at www.idlewyldinn.com
