Always happy to come "home" to this part of town

We had such a wonderful time in the family room (#3). The room was perfect - comfortable beds, lots of space, cozy bathrobes and the view was delightful, especially when the sheep next door were in full romp. We loved the B&B’s proximity to Fisgard Lighthouse & Hatley Castle & gardens. Dieter’s tips for an all-day outing to Port Renfrew were spot on. Our whale watching expedition lacked only whales, but we had fun anyway and were able to see three species of seals. We were thrilled to see so many flowers in bloom in spite of the somewhat chilly weather, and at least one of us (Laura) was particularly enthralled with the moss and lichens we saw everywhere !! We did enjoy downtown Victoria (especially the Royal BC museum) but we were always happy to come "home" to this part of town where swans are in the lagoon and life is quiet and peaceful. Thank you for a marvellous week and respite from our busy lives.
