Sandra's place was the perfect base for my partner and I to explore the Sooke area from for a week. It was so peaceful and we really enjoyed coming back to the suite to relax each day. Quails, hummingbirds, deer visiting the yard each night. Most nights were foggy but we got a clear sky on our last night and were able to see the stars. The little grill was a great way to do dinner and the hot plate did the trick for breakfast needs. The eggs, bagels, and chocolate croissants that were left for our arrival were wonderful extra touches. Sandra was very communicative and on top of things - brought us a jug of water on our last evening when her well had run dry before we even realized there was any issue at all! We were a bit confused when we arrived since the suite in the pictures was actually the one next to the one we were given, but they are mirror images of each other so other than that initial confusion it was no issue at all. Would absolutely recommend Sandra's place for anyone looking for a quiet spot removed from the city to base yourself out of when you're exploring the area.
