Lonely Planet review

The demure Laura Secord Homestead celebrates a Canadian heroine who lived here during the War of 1812. She's famous for booting it nearly 30km to warn the British soldiers of impending attack by the USA - even though she was a US citizen. The rose garden out front was planted by Laura herself. Tours on the half-hour.
