Fantastic vacation rental!
Unfortunately my husband and I were only able to stay here for one night. If we go back to this area, we will definitely stay here again. The kitchen was well appointed, the owners remarkably friendly. The bed was so comfortable, my husband wants to buy a mattress just like we had at Coles Bay. The owners even had apples from their trees waiting for us in our room!

Nice in the Library room. Superb breakfast and very kind hosts.
Only about 4 km from the airport and 5 minute walk to Coles Bay Regional Park (small, local park with 2 short trails to the water)

The owners checked in with us twice before we arrived to ensure that we had the reservation correct, that we knew their check-in procedure, and that everything we needed and would use was well explained. We had our choice of 3 amazing breakfasts - we chose crepes that had a beautiful presentation and amazing taste. Their two standard poodles were well trained and served as ambassadors for any guests who needed an animal hug. We will recommend this amazing B & B to friends and family; and look forward to staying there the next time we are staying over in Victoria.
