Fine property. Fine location. Fine host.

The listing promised a lot, but this small, handsome cottage exceeded our expectations, and the private garden patio -- where we lunched, surrounded by flowers -- was icing on the cake.

Cute cottage

Diane's private garden retreat is in a great location. The one bedroom cottage has all the necessary amenities needed to cook and enjoy a delicious meal using local ingredients purchased at a nearby grocer. The private patio is super! And, always important, the bed was very comfy.

Victoria stay

Diane has a unique residence/B&B. My husband and I throughly enjoyed being so close to historic Victoria. We were able to walk to both the tourist center as well as the neighborhood attractions like restaurants, parks and local coffeehouses and art galleries. One of the best parts for us is being able to pick up local seafood and cook it in our Garden Retreat! We are looking forward for a return trip.
