Sir Allan MacNab was a soldier, lawyer, entrepreneur and politician (1798-1862). A forceful though enigmatic personality, MacNab had a deep influence on many aspects of pre-Confederation Canada. As a youth he served with conspicuous gallantry in the War of 1812. Moving in 1826 from York (Toronto) to Hamilton, he set up a thriving law practice, but he owed his fortune to speculation in real estate. He was an entrepreneur as well; with Glasgow merchant Peter Buchanan, he was chiefly responsible for the construction of the Great Western Railway. MacNab eventually became a Canadian political leader and Prime Minister of the Province of Canada before Canadian Confederation (1854-1856).

The MacNab Suite is a high-ceilinged, spacious apartment on the main floor of Mulberry House and is equipped with beautiful furnishings, including a queen-sized pull-out couch. The suite is brightened by oversized windows and french doors leading onto a large stone patio.

With its own private entrance, the MacNab Suite also offers a completely equipped kitchen with full-sized fridge, stove and microwave, making total meal preparation a possibility. Other amenities include a coffee-maker, kettle, TV, DVD player and internet access along with a 3-piece ensuite bathroom.

This room sleeps up to two individuals. For larger groups such as wedding parties, the Ferrie Suite can be combined with the MacNab Suite to sleep up to six people with two additional bedrooms and an additional full ensuite bathroom.
