Our stay at Garden Hideaway in Sooke was perfection. Caryl has thought of everything in outfitting this gorgeous space with all of the necessities. There's even a small washer and dryer if you need to do a load of laundry after a day or more of hiking or riding on the Galloping Goose Trail. Speaking of the Goose, it's a very short distance to the trail and the Sooke Potholes, as well as stores, restaurants and the Night Market. Although it's centrally located and civilization is quite near, you feel a sense of peace like being in the wilderness itself. It's quiet .. the kind of quiet where your worries immediately dissipate upon your arrival. What else can I say? Charming, peaceful, quiet, and with a quintessential cozy feel, yet modern and sleek in design. The apartment beckons after a long day of exploring Sooke, Shirley or Port Renfrew.
