Our family felt right at home at this cozy cottage. The space is welcoming and clean. We especially love the close proximity to the Cadboro-Gyro Park. Thank you Barry and Jane for hosting us!

I found the apartment charming and the location was perfect for me, close to UVic. The bed was super comfortable, the air conditioning was a real plus, and there was an abundance of white fluffy towels in the bathroom. The kitchen was well equipped although no dishwasher. I did find the stone steps down to the unpaved path to the back of the house where the apartment is located to be a little challenging especially with luggage but managed it and figured out how to back into the parking space. Overall I was quite satisfied with my stay, Barry and Jane were very accommodating and I would return in the future.

I arrived to find small bugs crawling on the wall above the kitchen counter. The bugs all seemed to be coming in via the outlet by the coffee machine. It is a small counter, small kitchen, so the bugs in this limited area was very uncomfortable.
I left and had to find another place to stay. The owner welcomed me back after the bugs were cleaned. They reported it was due to being in the rain forest. This was a day later and I had already found a new place to stay. This was very expensive, no refund. Disappointing.

We stayed for a tournament at UVic and it worked out great. Easy walk to the campus and also to shops and a grocery store. Also a park with water access. The location was ideal and the basement apartment was clean and well furnished. Beds are very comfortable, the pullout is a queen size. About a 20 minute drive into main Victoria tourist area. The yard is not fenced but there are lots of places to walk the dog.

Everything about our stay was great. Communication was excellent and we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The proximity to the UVIC campus, coffee shop, grocery store, and even a pet store is super convenient. Loved the games and book library!

This unit was perfect for our trip to take our daughter to university. As they said in the listing, it is literally right across from some of the residences on campus. It was very clean, well equipped and maintained and there was a pretty backyard sitting area that is covered. The host was very pleasant and communicated quickly on anything we needed to discuss.

A good option if you're not using the sofa bed and staying just for one or 2 nights. Well maintained and a place with lots of character. The garden is beautiful.

We loved our stay at Hillhouse! Check-in and check-out were easy peasy and Barry and Jane were easy to communicate with before and during our stay. The suite was comfortable and provided all of the amenities our family needed during our stay. Great location with easy access to the city and great attractions nearby!

We enjoyed our brief stay at their condo. It was convenient for exploring the greater Victoria area, and there are some lovely walking trails in the immediate vicinity of the house. Would definitely return. Thank you.

The location right next to UVic was perfect for us. It is an easy walk down the hill to Cadboro Bay, the beach, grocery store, cafe, and a nice restaurant (Thai Lemongrass). Be aware that this is a basement suite. It was clean and quiet, nicely finished with a well equipped kitchen and a very comfortable bed.
Good value for a reasonable price. We would stay here again. Thank you!

If anything, the apartment was nicer than the listing led me to believe. Clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Instructions were clear, communication with the host good, and the back deck is beautiful. A 12-minute walk to the UVic central campus, and ten minutes to shopping and dining. City bus stop nearby. Would stay here again.

It really was a joy to stay in Jane and Barry’s guest suite at Hillhouse. The night we arrived turned out have the biggest snowfall on record for Victoria, which made our few days there seem a bit magical. The suite is lovely and very comfortable; and Barry and Jane are wonderful hosts, generous and caring. We have no hesitation at all recommending it.

This was a well appointed suite in a super location. The space itself is a basement which has its limitations like any basement suite. The deck could definitely use a makeover. But it is as clear the hosts cared about making their guests comfortable - good bed, lovely bed linens, big fat white towels a nicely stocked kitchen, and great bathroom. Lots of leash optional walking trails nearby for the dog. And a fair price.

This spot is just such a perfect stay for one person or more. The kitchen has all you need, the bathroom was spacious and clean, the bed was comfy and the full sized living room to relax and unwind was divine. Also the AC was soo appreciated during my summer stay. Barry and Jane were very accommodating with allowing a delayed checkout. Would highly recommend

English Country suite in Cadboro Bay area
This property was all we could have asked for. Needed to be close to Cadboro Bay for a weekend wedding event. We were delighted with the set up of this basement suite surrounded by peace and quiet and pretty pretty english country garden. The kitchen super stocked and living room super comfy. The bathroom was quaint, clean and large and the queen bed was so yummy. We could walk down the hill to the local market, pub, coffee house and drugstore....as well as the BEACH ! We'll be back, I'm sure of that !
