We had a wonderful 2 week stay at this fabulous property with an amazing view of the water and a beautiful yard in which to relax. All was ready for us when we arrived including a lovely bouquet of flowers. We didn't have a vehicle but we love to walk and found the location to be very well situated for exploring most of the sites. We were pleasantly surprised to find the house stocked with basic ingredients and cookware which was very helpful. The Ross Bay strip mall a few blocks away provided everything we needed (groceries, wine, pharmacy, coffee shop, and even a pub). Valerie and Trish were both wonderful and gave us ideas of places to explore and eat. We were delighted to receive an autographed copy of Valerie's cookbook to experiment with when we got home. We definitely plan to stay here again.
