This property is in an amazing location. The rooms might seem a little outdated, but the bed and the pillows were so comfortable and the room was very clean. I have not slept that good on vacation ever! The staff is so kind and helpful, and they also do an amazing breakfast. It is literally right across the street from Spiral Beach, and within walking distance of a small grocery store and several eating establishments. If we ever returned to this area, we will definitely be staying here again, we could not have been happier with our stay!

Fantastic, responsive team. Perfect location. Attentive service. Very clean room. Great options provided for amenities.

Great

Amazing! Cannot wait to stay again. Beautiful accommodations, friendly staff. Breakfast was delicious. Perfect location with amazing views

Our stay at Dashwood was lovely. It is the perfect location to get all around Victoria quickly. It is next to the ocean / beach and a multipurpose path and across from Beacon Hill park. Dashwood is very charming with many of the original details all modernized over the years. The breakfast was plentiful and tasty and snacks and drinks provided were thoughtful. Staff were attentive and available. The hot tub was nice after a long days walking. The bed was very comfortable. The views were spectacular. Super time and we hope to come back.

Ideally located and so charming. The breakfast was delicious and the employees were so charming.

Breakfast was great! And what a view!

Great historical character manor. Great fresh, hot, breakfast each day. Great staff! Fantastic location! Have already recommended it to family who will be looking to book soon. Will be booking again someday!

This is a truly lovely old house in an excellent location. It’s a little bit worn, but I’d cheerfully stay here again.

Breakfast was well prepared and served. Very enjoyable. Good location to see beach and ocean.

The Dashwood is a heritage building and obviously would have many challenges to maintain a top notch accommodation site. Along with being exceptionally clean Dashwood also does a very good job of keeping the authenticity of the building while adding modern improvements with a heritage touch (ie. new soaker tub, sink and toilet fit the look of an old fashioned bathroom). The breakfast room, with a view of the ocean, was beautiful and the food scrumptious! The staff were polite, friendly and always helpful if required. It would be nice to have a common room on the main floor but it was suffice to be able to access coffee, tea, bottled water and delightful dessert treats in the breakfast area 24/7! The ocean view, Dallas Road promenade and close proximity to Cook Street Village were all huge considerations in our choice of Dashwood Manor. We were not disappointed. We'll be back!

The over all property was fine, our room was not. The bathroom had no outlets that worked. The ceiling near the sinks were low and i kepts bumping my head. The mirror above the sink is so low you can't see your face. The shower enclosure is extremely small for the size of the bathroom. There wasn't anywhere to set your needed items to take a shower. There was a tv in the room, however you couldn't see it from the bed. The breakfast was lovely. Hopefully other rooms are better than the one we had.

Our review of the Dashwood Manor is pretty mixed. On the plus side, the staff was friendly the location is excellent and the bed was comfortable. But for the price we paid, we expected more. There is zero room cleaning during your stay, which was surprising. The breakfasts were just ok, and were identical both days we were there except eggs were replaced by pancakes the second day. The room we were in - the Dorset - is on the third floor, and the bathroom ceiling has an extreme pitch. This made it so anyone over 4' tall can't see themselves in the mirror over the sink. There is a larger mirror on the other side of the bathroom, but there's no lighting there. The shower was so tiny we couldn't bend over to wash our feet.

Dashwood Manor is now one of our favourite places to stay. Check in and out were so easy, the whole place was very clean. The amenities were fantastic. We got to have our included breakfast in our room and they accommodated my gluten allergy. The bed was comfortable and the soaker tub was amazing. 10 out of 10 from us :)

Despite excellent hospitality does not live up to its price point. There was limited heating during the night, and one simple daily menu for breakfast that was not anything special. Daily cleaning service non-existent so take out your own trash, make your own bed is not what one would expect of a renowned b&b. Water tea and coffee available all day in the dining room is a welcome lovely touch, but we would not choose to stay here again.

Wonderful staff. Liked the snack availability in a common area (cookies tea water etc). Only complaint was a tiny shower/bathroom in our particular room, due to it being an older home. And it would be nice if there was some way to talk to the staff after 4pm...maybe there was and I missed it, though.

Dashwood Manor is clean and quiet. It's in an ideal location between the beach and Seaside and the lively Cook Street village. Walking trails are easily accessible to incredible views. The breakfast served was delicious and the staff was welcoming. I wish my stay was longer.

Lovely place with beautiful location by the park, coast and close to downtown. The staff was great!

I had several issues with the cleanliness and overall condition of my room, but the main problem was a bed that was squeaky and VERY uncomfortable. I slept poorly and woke with considerable back pain due to a "crater" worn by one side of the bed being used more than the other. I requested and was given a refund on my non-refundable charges, so at least the manager was responsive to my concerns. But this was disappointing stay and not something I would want to repeat.

Just an all around beautiful property right next to the ocean. The jacuzzi tub was wonderful and the water was hot. Breakfast was fresh, we enjoyed some board games and a charming view. Overall we would highly recommend it here.
