Opening in June, The Ayrshire Hotel is bringing new life to Elora's historically significant Dalby Building, also known as Dalby House or Gordon's Block. Currently owned by Elora locals Teal and Eric Parkinson, the building has been meticulously transformed into a 10-room boutique property. "Realizing a years-long vision of restoring and revitalizing our town's landmark flatiron into its next chapter as The Ayrshire Hotel is a tremendous honour." The Ayrshire Hotel is an expansion upon the Parkinsons' first hospitality project, a cozy six-bedroom property known as The Ayrshire House. The Ayrshire Hotel will begin welcoming guests this June.
