Imagine your worst travel nightmare: you book a hotel during a time when hotels will be hard to find, only to be told when you arrive that the hotel has no record of your booked, prepaid room. ..and you realize that you just might have to sleep in your car...AND you are giving a presentation at a conference the next...

I don't usually stay in B&B's but a friend recommended that I give Trutch Manor a try, I'm glad I did. It wasn't a bedroom, it was like having my own apartment, complete with kitchen. It's nice that its off the busy streets but within easy staggering distance from the local nightlife. Sherrin the owner was great to deal with... More

After reading some of the bad reviews for Trutch Manor, and already sulky because Craigmyle B&B -- to which I'd been coming for about twelve years -- had been sold and the new owners didn't respond to emails, I entered my assigned room prepared to be disappointed. First of all, Sherrin, the owner, was not on the premises, just as... More

the house and the location is nice, the breakfast is great, but... we arrived to check in at 5pm - like we appointed per mail. When we arrived, nobody was there to let us in and so we had to phone to get the host. she wasn´t availible because her mobile didn´t work, so we had to wait about one... More

We stayed at Trutch Manor recently and it was clean and had every thing we needed in the suite, which is appointed in a Victorian period style. The bed was a creaky but comfy double sized bed, and the shower was knee height due to a slanted ceiling. My first thought was "this is great" but then I remembered that... More

My husband booked a suite, letting the owner know that we would arrive at 10:30 pm. She said she would leave a key under the mat, a post-it on the door, but to find, she said to call her at 10:30. When we arrived, we called... and didn't answer. The only apartment with a key under the door was filthy,... More

If you've stayed here before, you will be disappointed. the house is the same beautiful place with great rooms and location, but... the new owner has had it long enough that she should have the bugs worked out, but she hasn't. we arrived to check in at 4:50pm and had to phone to get the host. she was shopping, so...

Trutch Manor has been sold. Les and Marilyn are no longer involved in any way. We've stayed there several times a summer for eight years. We will miss Les and Marilyn as our inn keepers, and we wish them well. The new owners have a very tough act to follow. It will be difficult for them to keep the standards... More

What an incredible place to bookend my 8 day motorcycle adventure from Seattle across the heart of British Columbia and down Vancouver Island. Les and Marilyn were incredible, gracious hosts. Les made this middle aged biker and his iron horse feel right at home, and Les' dry sense of humor was a real treat. His recommendation for dinner at the... More
