Host profile image
Bruce and Kathleen have travelled extensively around the world therefore they know how important it is to have a comfortable, clean, safe and welcoming place to call your home when you are miles away from it! They are both business owners and grew up on Vancouver Island. Kathleen is a painter and you will notice many of her art works decorating the walls. They both are avid hikers so can tell you all the best trails for hiking.

Why they chose this property

We love living in rural Saanich. We used to live in Victoria city for 20 years but then bought and built our house out here in 2002. Saanich is so beautiful, full of so much to do, hiking, wineries, beaches, lakes yet many interesting shops, pubs and resteraunts. We are still discovering new little eateries or exciting hiking trails! We feel our property is very special and hope others will enjoy its natural beauty as much as we do.
