Classic cottage vibe

Sarah was responsive to my request to enter into the suite a bit early, which I appreciated as I was needing a rest between my flight and dinner plans. It was a bonus to be able to park my rental car out front for free. I also needed an iron which she promptly provided.The place is very cute, with a classic cottage vibe. A little too rustic for me, however. But I know people who would really enjoy this relaxed, private experience. It’s great to have access to a backyard sitting area. And because of its residential nature, it’s quiet. I will state that I woke up with a number of bites on my left arm. While at first I thought bedbugs, I now believe it was fleas. I know I didn’t have these bites before going to bed. It is possible they came from the plane, rental car, or the restaurant. Apparently the place is pet free. Upon leaving, I shared my concern with Sarah, and she immediately called her cleaner and they gave the place an extra cleaning. So I acknowledge her receptiveness to feedback and appreciate her diligence.

Private Getaway

We had a great stay and will be back! Adam and Sarah were great hosts and truly allowed us to have quiet private respite from our usually crazy busy schedules. The cottage is quiet, fab and has everything you need or want - from a great tub, extra cosy couch throws, a lush private garden, comfy bed, and all the appliances or charcuterie dishes you would need. Highly suggest having a rental car and visiting wittys beach at low tide. Colwood pizza is delish and The Rose pub is yummy. You can easily walk to the wooded trails at Royal Roads from the cottage. Great location to zip to downtown Victoria!!

Homey week

Location & amenities were ideal for our visit to our son who lives on base 20 minutes away. Close to restauraunts, conveniences, main roadways, trails, attractions. It looks like there’s some public transportation but a car is recommended - parking included. Lovely, responsive hosts and lots of privacy. We were out most of the time and it was usually too cool to enjoy the yard. Overall good value & comfort and suited us better than a hotel.

Non-Vacation Stay - Good Value

We stayed here while preparing to move from a nearby property, so the location was perfect for us and we were familiar with the area. We found the space a little tight, considering we were back and forth with so many things to sort through because of our move, but otherwise the property worked well for our needs. It was good value for the price. Thanks to our host, Sarah, who was readily available and responded promptly to questions.

Lovely way to stay in Victoria

The homeowners have truly thought of every little thing a guest may want or need. The bathroom had a first aid kit, tampons, pads, hair dryer, shampoo, and shower gel. Kitchen was equipped with a blender, cooking utensils, spices, oatmeal, jam, and seasoning salts. There were cookbooks, games, TV (with option to access Netflix). Even the bedroom dresser had pretty paper liners inside. The homeowner immediately responded to any questions. This place is a short, but steep walk to the beach and is near some great parks and trails. Well worth staying at. Such a lovely place and lovely homeowners.

Perfect Location for Royal Roads

I rented the cottage as I was doing a six day residency at Royal Roads. I was the envy of my cohort as I had all the amenities of home, had the ability to cook healthy meals, and I got to sleep on a very comfortable bed! The place is cozy and comfortable. Just perfect for me doing my studies and having some down time in the evening!
