BELL HOMESTEAD NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE REVIEWS

One of the must see spots in Brantford!!! As a child in school, when I used to hear that Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone, I was always fascinated to learn more about him. This trip was the answer to my desire for that. The Bell house has been maintained really well. There is a guided tour and it is advisable to book prior to going there, since they take only few people at a time. There is a small entrance fees, but I was able to visit free since I used canoo app. The guided tour was one of the best tours I have ever attended. There is a small video show prior to the tour and also a souvenir shop. They also have a small cafe with a mini menu. Now about the tour... The tour starts with the explanation of the Bell family s story of migration from Scotland to Canada. They take through the house which has been maintained amazingly well. The art work of Bells mother is simply great. The house gives you an insight of an upper middle class family back in the day. From the visitors room to kitchen to bedroom all have amazing stories to tell. The equipments in the house are also fascination. They have olden day washing machine, stove, etc. They also explain the functioning of everything. They also have set up in the nearby house in the compound with a small mini telephone exchange to see how the telephones worked back during the day. We also bought a small olden telephone as a memory. Truly worth the money and time.

It has preservation. beautiful furniture and home interior. I thought I wanted to live here. It was an impressive place among the places I visited. Her explanation was excellent and friendly. I would like to listen to it again.

A must to visit place with kids. Will take you back to history. I didn’t knew that Queen visited this site.

MYRTLEVILLE HOUSE MUSEUM REVIEWS

Lovely little museum. I think you need to book ahead, but our group did, so we went. Of particular interest was the octagonal, cement silo and - perhaps - the oldest piano in Canada. The guide was very pleasant and knowledgeable. (And if I got the above facts wrong, it is entirely my fault, and not hers)! Plenty of parking. Public washroom available.

Amazing history and the best tours of the house! Truely a historical Brantford location with the loveliest staff who care about the house. Also the best summer camp programs!! A must see visit if you're in Brantford.

Beautiful house with so much history. Highly recommend it, and the lady giving the tour she is very nice and full of information.

BRANTFORD COURTHOUSE REVIEWS

Haven't had any business, but the architecture is beautiful. Its an old building with tall sandstone walls. Looks really nice. I find these examples of old architecture impressive.

Friendly staff and highly recommended. Excellent clerk staff and almost zero wait times.

The court-house faces Victoria Square, one of Ontario's most impressive public squares.
