Photos and Description of this Victoria holiday 2 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, sleeps 4-5.

NOW TAKING LIMITED 2010 RENTALS. We have two longer-term renters (retired folks) returning in 2010 to settle into a well-located, comfortable environment. Designed, built, and steadily fine-tuned by its owners for their own retirement. The gracious cottage atmosphere is enhanced by bright, open main rooms and high standard of maintenance. Top grade Beautyrest king bed and new high-efficiency laundry appliances were 2007 upgrades. The veranda provides no-step access from the living room to the enclosed private rear garden. From there, you will hardly realize how close you are to the amenities of the city. In season, you can forage for greens in the back veggie garden. Supermarkets, liquor outlet, the shops of Oak Bay village, drug store, banks, library, etc. are near. Walk to beaches, or drive to numerous golf courses and hiking trails throughout the region. This residential property does not provide B&B or tourist rentals by the day. Not suited for small children.

Victoria is located at the southern end of Vancouver Island. The city and nearby districts feature noted public and private gardens, encouraged by moderate temperatures. Our rainfall is less than that of Vancouver, which is located nearby on the mainland. Golf courses and tennis courts are plentiful. Though Victoria itself is a civilized residential city, visitors can easily drive to rugged West Coast scenery for hiking and watching salmon return to the rivers in the fall. Whale-watching, scuba diving, boating and sports fishing are accessible right from town. Once again in 2008, Conde Naste Traveller rated Vacouver Island as the best island destination in North America, and Victoria was rated 4th best city destination in the Americas.

Further details for this holiday rental in Victoria, Canada

Welcome to our home: Rose Cottage was designed and furnished as a retirement residence. The mix of old and new furnishings and oriental area rugs have been selected to give a tasteful relaxed feel. The full set of kitchen appliances were new when the house was built, laundry appliances upgraded in fall 2007. There is even a professional massage table available. The outdoor garden will be tended daily in spring and summer. To enhance air quality, all main level floors are hard surface, there is a whole-house air filtration system, and main floor bed is protected by 'Protect-A-Bed' mattress and pillow covers.

Preparing for Your Visit: We keep trying to add little refinements to make your visit better. Some of these come from guests' suggestions. For example, a long-term tenant required access to a printer and fax machine for her business, so we provided that. Some guests like to cook, so we leave a full selection of spices available. August 2007 saw a new 'high-efficiency' washer arrive with matching dryer. September, a new Simmons Beautyrest king-sized bed for master bedroom. To suit guests in 2008, we provided a barbecue and a desk in an alcove off the upper floor lounge to create a small work area.

Dining: Coffee bar, convenience store, restaurants, and service offering full take-out meals are close by. Walk a little further for tea room, bakery, supermarket and more dining. Of course, you can also head downtown for a wide selection of traditional and ethnic foods. Want a suburb ocean view while you dine? A choice of several locations awaits you.
