We really enjoyed our stay at Misty Meadows B&B with such friendly, engaging hosts. Cathy's breakfasts were so creative, tasty, bountiful and a feast for the eyes as well as our stomachs! The property is beautifully decorated, very comfortable, spacious bedrooms with balconies, lovely landscape of trees. We also thoroughly enjoyed their lovely pets, Kenzie the lab, Jule and Gem, their cats and Noah the adorable donkey! We highly recommend staying at their lovely home.

We had a fabulous stay here. It was very homely and the hosts Cathy and Erroll were very warm and friendly. The rooms were very clean with a beautiful garden view. An AC had been installed specially for us, because of the unusual heat. The icing on the cake was the amazing breakfast! I would definitely return here in the future!!

The host and his wife is very friendly. He showed us around his farm. My kids had a wonderful time feeding the little donkey. The brrakfast his wife made was delicious. I would say if you don't like animals or pets, or have allergies, they do have the most friendly pets. They love to be petted.

The property is little far away from city. But we like to be in places like these as there is lot of silence. The host is very good. Cathy makes the stay comfortable and she makes yummy breakfast. We loved the dutch pancakes and coffee with fruits 😋. The covid safety was in place. Would highly recommend this property

Gorgeous location and not as far out of town as you might think! Cathy and Errol are warm and personable hosts and the accommodations are first rate. We enjoyed our excellent breakfasts which were adjusted for a food intolerance with no fuss and appreciated our chats with Errol while we ate. Special shout out to the critter welcome committee who allowed lots of petting. Regarding location, GPS had no problem getting us there, but we would recommend “county” driving speed as both deer and cyclists share the twisty upper-downy roads!
Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2021
Response from Cathy on 6 Oct 2021
So glad you enjoyed your stay with both us and the critter welcome committee. The road speed is a deliberate "traffic calming" style patterned after some European Roads. Do come again!

This BnB is north of the hustle and bustle of Victoria, and we enjoyed driving the scenic winding country road that led to their home. The suite of 2 rooms + bathroom is inside the hosts’ home, with additional access to a living room downstairs as well as the dining room where the huge, delicious breakfasts are served. The room was very peaceful, decorated in the same homey style as the rest of the house, and two very friendly Labrador dogs are onsite to spread cheer and smiles.

Very tranquil. Beautiful home in a unique location. Loved the 2 dogs, lambs, horse and donkey. Erroll gave us a great tour of the farm to meet the creatures, and Cathy made a superb breakfast including a Dutch pancake, which was like a Yorkshire Pudding. My son and I enjoyed our stay immensely.

Best B&B
Our first B&B experience as a family of 4 and it was great. My 2 boys (2 and 8 years) enjoyed playing with the dogs, petting the horse and the donkey. The Landlords are the nicest people we met in Canada and we had the best breakfast in the morning and loved the coffee! We will definitely stay there again!

A stay in the country very close to the city.
What a wonderful location to stay in during our visit to Victoria. We spent eleven nights at Misty Meadows and loved it. The hosts Kathy and Errol were very welcoming and Kathy made us wonderful breakfasts, if anything they were too large- that isn't a complaint- it's a compliment! Hearing the sheep baa occasionally is just perfect. This B&B is perfect, a twenty minute drive puts you in downtown Victoria.

Quiet, comfortable, with very nice Hosts!
Misty Meadows Bed & Breakfast was even better than I had expected!! My older daughter & I went there for 2 nights last week, for her Spring Break, & to explore Victoria. The Hosts, Erroll & Cathy are SO gracious, kind, sweet & accomodating! Cathy prepared an amazing breakfast each morning (at the time that you request it!) and it is a beautiful setting, with gorgeous china, and place settings! We thought we were eating at The Empress Hotel! She even made a special trip to the store, early in the morning, to accommodate my daughter's lactose intolerance - Thank-You Cathy for all your extra efforts! The room has 2 comfortable beds, a very large bathroom, with lots of fluffy towels, and extra mirrors & places for 2 "girls" to get ready at the same time. There is a large closet, & lots of drawer space, if you need it. The TV wasn't working, but Erroll gave us DVD's, & we didn't miss it at all. The wifi there is great. This is the host's personal home, but they certainly respect your privacy, and give you your space! They live on a different floor. I can't say enough about their property - it's a working sheep farm, with 2 beautiful dogs (outside), and a horse, donkey, & llamas nearby. So, you feel like you're really out in the country, but you are only 20 mins from downtown Victoria. Thanks to Erroll for the tour of the sheep area, & all the great information about the animals! It is extremely quiet - great for sleeping! The sounds of the tree frogs nearby will lull you to sleep
