We enjoyed our stay at the Sooke Cottage. The location was excellent and was a super easy drive into town. The Sooke potholes and some walking/jogging trails are very close as well. Sarah-Mae was very accommodating and responsive and check-in/out couldn't have been easier. We really enjoyed the farm animals and the hot tub was great after a long afternoon of hiking around Sooke.
As mentioned in other reviews, the loft has a steep ladder which must be navigated carefully and the full kitchen made breakfast & tea very convenient for us. We were a little surprised that the bathroom had a clawfoot bathtub but no shower attachment. It has been a very long time since either of us had taken a bath but for a 2 night stay after a few days in Victoria this worked for us. Be aware that it can definitely be a little tricky for other tall people.
We did enjoy the rustic feel and the nights are super quiet and peaceful. We did not use the fireplace but wood was provided.
