Neat old home and property to walk around. Interesting to see how people lived 100-130 years ago
This was a very educational, informative site.They first showed us a little review film and then we toured the old house and office and were allowed to touch and enjoy the old phones. A wonderful place for kids to learn about Alexander Graham Bell and Family, and appreciate the fact that it is right here in the country around Brantford. I would go again and take any visitors that come here for a little afternoon trip. They also have a brunch on Mother's Day most years and it is spectacular.
So good to visit this historical place. Enjoyed the tour. The narrator was exceptional. Great time.. Highly recommended. The tour reminded me to be enterprising and persevering. What he worked with was meagre compared to the robust resource at our disposal. So let's drop the idea that all that can be discovered or invented is already done, and that nothing remains for us to explore. We'd be surprised when we keep our eyes open to possibilities.
A nice historic place to visit. The house is kept and preserved in pristine condition and tours are available every hour.
Apart from being a birthplace of great scientific discovery, the place in itself is a quintessential representation of 1800s architecture and interior design. The oil lamps, light fixtures (though most converted into electric) give a neat authentic vibe, so does a high end step stove in kitchen.
Its a must see for science/history fanatics out there as well as everyone else.
