Up a winding drive through the forest at the top of Gabriola Island in Canada's Gulf Islands. This B&B has only two private rooms - but they are special. In the winter, grab a book and curl up under the duvet next to a cozy gas fire (love the cotton bedding and down pillows). Wake up after the best sleep of your life to a morning view over islands and ocean, tempting you out onto the deck. I love the walk-in shower and heated bathroom floors - a treat no matter what time of year it is. Breakfast is wonderful with perfect French Press coffee. In the evening, try a glass of wine in the hot tub. If you like to be online, high speed wireless will make you even happier. Skype home, or check out what's on satellite TV. It's like having your own small cottage, except everything is done.
This is a great place to stay whether you're cycling, driving or walking. Ten minutes to the ferry or shops, but so very private. Liz and Bil are wonderful hosts and have created an oasis here at the top of the island. Great value too :-)
