Today, the Mackenzie Inn provides elegant overnight accommodation and specializes in full service weddings. We offer "Exclusive Use" for your next wedding reception, conference, banquet or retreat.

Originally built in 1888, Sir William and Lady Mackenzie entertained many notable figures, including Prime Ministers and European aristocrats. There are a number of ghosts rumoured to have passed through the halls of this grand manor.
