Nice in the Library room. Superb breakfast and very kind hosts. Only about 4 km from the airport and 5 minute walk to Coles Bay Regional Park (small, local park with 2 short trails to the water)

The owners checked in with us twice before we arrived to ensure that we had the reservation correct, that we knew their check-in procedure, and that everything we needed and would use was well explained. We had our choice of 3 amazing breakfasts - we chose crepes that had a beautiful presentation and amazing taste. Their two standard poodles were well trained and served as ambassadors for any guests who needed an animal hug. We will recommend this amazing B & B to friends and family; and look forward to staying there the next time we are staying over in Victoria.

The room we got was excellent. You couldn't have asked for more amenities in a room - fridge, microwave, coffee maker, kettle, fresh water, oodles of cups, lots of outlets to plug in devices, lots of hooks to hang clothing, a drawer with items that we might have forgotten at home like shaving cream and toothbrushes, a hair dryer, a mirror outside the bathroom, lots of pillows, lots of absorbent towels, a black face cloth for makeup, books to read. It was quite amazing how well stocked one room could be. Three choices for a hot breakfast or fruit choice.
