Wonderful country setting, convenient to Sydney ferries, Butchart Gardens and downtown Victoria. The bed was so comfortable and the surroundings were quiet and peaceful. I was able to enjoy the sights I'd planned on my Emily Carr pilgrimage and, as a bonus, got the best night's sleep I've had in ages! Sonja and Dale were perfect hosts, offering a glass of wine in the evening and delicious coffee in the morning. My reservation was last minute, so I was relieved when Sonja responded immediately. She and Dale were also very helpful with needed directions. The house is light and spacious with a nice separation between the upstairs owner's suite and the guest rooms. Single travelers or couples will be very comfortable here. I highly recommend.
