A Hidden Nordic Retreat: Stay at The Liberty Inn in Caledon, Ontario

📍 First Impressions: Historic Charm Meets Modern Calm

The Liberty Inn is housed in a beautifully restored historic building, originally dating back to the mid-1800s. From the moment I arrived, the space felt grounding. A perfect balance of heritage character and minimalist, modern comfort.

Nothing felt rushed or overly styled. Instead, everything felt intentional, warm, and quietly luxurious, the kind of place that invites you to exhale as soon as you step inside.

🛌 The Norwood Suite: A Sanctuary for One

I stayed in the Norwood Suite, at The Liberty Inn, and it truly felt like my own private retreat. Designed with comfort and wellness in mind, the space was cozy without feeling small, ideal for a solo stay.

Highlights of the suite included:

• A beautiful steam shower, perfect for unwinding after a day outdoors

• Thoughtfully curated in-room skincare and wellness touches

• Plush robes that made mornings and evenings feel extra indulgent

• A cozy fireplace, which quickly became my favourite place to sit with a book and a cup of tea

It was the kind of room that made me want to linger, no distractions, no pressure to be anywhere else.

🌿 The Nordic Spa Experience at The Liberty Inn: Quiet, Grounding, Restorative

One of the most memorable parts of my stay was the private Nordic spa experience. Nestled just steps from the inn and surrounded by nature, the spa is available to book exclusively, making it feel incredibly personal and peaceful.

The experience includes:

• A cedar hot tub for long, quiet soaks

• A Finnish sauna that melts tension away

• A cold plunge for an invigorating reset

• 
  

Moving slowly between heat, cold, and rest felt incredibly grounding. With no crowds and no noise, it was the kind of wellness experience that allows you to truly be present, listening to the wind, the birds, and your own breath.

🧖‍♀️ In-Room Wellness: Spa Comforts Without Leaving the Suite

What I loved most was how the spa experience extended beyond the Nordic area and into my suite. After my outdoor soak and sauna session, returning to the Norwood Suite felt seamless, wrapping myself in a robe, turning on the fireplace, and stepping into the steam shower to finish the evening.

It felt less like a hotel stay and more like a personal wellness ritual calm, slow, and deeply comforting.

🍲 A Cozy Dinner In: Local Comfort Food Delivered

That evening, I ordered chicken noodle soup made by a local chef, which was delivered right to my room. Simple, nourishing, and exactly what I was craving. It felt like the perfect solo-stay dinner.

Eating by the fire, a Christmas movie on the TV, wrapped in a robe, with no agenda other than rest, was one of those quiet moments that stays with you.
