Barry and Patti's home was the last stop on a 15 day road trip I started in Calgary. I wanted to end the vacation with a few days of relaxing, and oh boy, what a wonderfully beautiful and relaxing part of the world the home is in!
The check-in and out process was super easy and the hosts provided lots of information beforehand and upon arrival. Although I didn't meet Barry or Patti they were very responsive to text messages.
The accommodation is lovely. I could happily have stayed longer. It is fitted out to a high standard and was very clean. It had all the things you'd need for a stay.
The icing on the cake is the tranquility and views. Being in bed and watching the sunrise over the sea, hearing the waves lap the shore, or sitting outside right next to the sea, looking out for wildlife, was sheer bliss.
Rather than do more sight-seeing I spent the day in the area (Oak Bay), walking around the rocky shoreline to Cadboro Bay, then looping round and spending the even relaxing at the house watching the sea, I highly recommend doing that.
I really hope to return for a longer stay at Barry and Patti's home in the future.
