The nearby beaches and nature walks are fabulous, as is cozy Cook's Village. I lived the bright, spacious room and the gorgeous soaker tub in the Chelsea Room! Can't wait to come back here!

The location is perfect for those who prefer being away from city noise and activity, and also enjoy having extensive seaside trails and park trails to explore and enjoy. The Tudor Room was perfect as a solo traveler and nice to be on the corner of the building away from street noise. The interior of Dashwood Manor has a lovely feel and look of an old Victoria manor house. Plenty of hot water for showers/baths and love having a bar sink, counter and mini fridge in the room. The breakfast is excellent and there are drinks and snacks available in the dining room 24/7. Service is excellent and friendly and the view from the dining room of the Olympics is a great start to the day. Walking through Beacon Hill Park into Victoria center is very enjoyable with tons of different paths to choose from and all kinds of activities and gardens along the way. If you are stealthy, you might spot a fawn feeding in the brush as I did.

Dashwood was adorable and easy to get in and get out. Parking was on site. We stayed one night for our honeymoon. Perfect location. Nice bed, lovely breakfast. Cool view. Quiet area. Delightful place.

Beautiful location, great proximity to everything

Tolles kleines Hotel zum verlieben. Erstklassiger Service, liebes Personal und leckeres Frühstück. Einfach großartig.

The place was clean and elegant. I would recommend placed to anyone.

Très bel établissement avec beaucoup de charme, une grande chambre et très belle vue. Très bon accueil et plein de petites attentions. Excellent petit déjeuner

The property is beautiful and right across the street from the beach where we walked in the morning. There are many spots to eat and shop at within walking distance. Would stay here again!

Enjoyed our stay. Great room and breakfast.

Beautiful character home B&b in Victoria. Perfect location for a quick visit. Breakfast was also very good. The only complaint we had was that there are no room darkening blinds on the windows so we were awake very early due to that. Other than that it was a great stay and even provided storage for our bikes.

With the waterfront location and the grassed area facing the beach, we were banking on having some chairs to enjoy the view. There were only four wrought iron chairs in total for all the guests and they needed paint. Part of the charm of staying in an old building is appreciating its history and how it has been developed into a bed and breakfast. But the door frame to the Kensington room was so out of alignment that it took a lot of muscle to open the door of the suite and as such it was binding heavily on the carpet. The sink drain was clogged, and one had a considerable wait for it to drain completely. During the evening there were no pastries of any sort and that would have been nice with our evening tea. The prepared check in was fine but the first staff members to be seen appeared at breakfast the following morning. There were two very poorly dressed individuals serving. Their actions were simply procedural with no warmth and usually breakfast is such an integral part of the experience of a bed and breakfast. The coffee was not hot and served with milk which didn’t help. We were never offered another coffee. The poached eggs for eggs benedict had not been properly drained prior to placement on the English muffins and that resulted in hot water pooling on the plate diluting the sauce. The potatoes were of the packaged style and not very hot. The salt and pepper shakers were clogged. We were wishing we were in a 3 star hotel with a kitchenette room.

Bathroom was clean but needed updating badly. Food was okay but there were no options at all.

Charming!

I enjoyed my stay. However the breakfast could have been improved with a selection of fresh fruit or fruit salad available and a selection of cereals and granola if one did not want a cooked breakfast. These items could be set out buffet style.

breakfast is so fresh and delicious.

Location was excellent. We were on the top floor king bed with a patio. The room next door had their shower right by our bed. And you could hear everything. The patio great location but not clean and the chairs needed new cushions. The railing on the deck was too high to see over, unless you were standing. The room was spotless, bed very comfortable. Breakfast amazing. Staff wonderful. Gardens and outside maintenance below standard. This bed-and-breakfast could be a beautiful Bushart gardens, but it was a weed infested and the plants were neglected and broken down.

We liked the location and room, very cute vibes. Having the breakfast was convenient as well, the lady serving us was really sweet. The only quick comment, is that it was hard to close the door smoothly without making noise. Lynne

The tub was nice. But it’s not a hot tub. It’s just a big bathtub without jets Ot

Overall the stay was pleasant. I would say the outside property was not as well maintained as the photos indicated.

Welcoming staff. Clean room with great ocean views. Lovely breakfast. Would stay again.
