Where to start and when to stop describing this beautiful property with such amazing hosts, peace and quiet all round, relaxing and restful, and the most dogs imaginable. We came as strangers but within an hour it was as if we were family or best friends for our lifetime such was the welcome we received. Val and Paul went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect, offered great advice, allowed us to walk Annie and Ruby (the gentlest giants we have ever encountered, so well behaved and so loving). The suite was so private, so spacious, so tastefully decorated and so well equipped – nothing was left to chance. The fresh organic eggs in the fridge (oh so delicious), and the lovely fruit and everything we needed for our stay was provided.
Our only regret was our stay was too short. Sitting out on the deck in the beautiful garden with the dogs at our feet, Lager on our laps and the humming birds coming and going to the feeders – could life get any better. There are beautiful walks all round and the fabulous Elliot Beach just down the road. With the great road network on the island, you are within easy reach of everywhere and so much to look forward to when you return home at night.
We learned so much about the Island and the First Nation People from Val and Paul. This is definitely an Oasis that we will love to return to again.
Thank you Val and Paul for sharing your wonderful home with us and making us feel so special. We warmly recommend you to all who are considering visiting Vancouver Island.
