We really enjoyed our stay here! It was very clean and comfortable. They even had a pack and play for our baby which saved us from having to bring our own. We definitely recommend staying here if you’re visiting the area!

We enjoyed our stay here. It was conveniently located to drive to different parts of the island. There were many small touches added that made it feel like home such as a night light. Kitchen was well stocked. There was a book with helpful information and we were provided with our entry code well in advance of arrival. We would stay again when visiting the area.

Farm Stay Great Stay!

We really enjoyed our time at Farm Stay. We were not around much, really only to sleep and have breakfast since we were touring the Sooke area and trying to fit everything we wanted to see into our 2 nights. However, the accommodation was excellent! Nothing to complain about and Derek has thought of all the little things that make it that much better. Ie: USB plugs bedside, coffee, condiments and chocolates available, nice bed linens and towels, lovely dishware etc. The location is very convenient for visiting areas of Sooke and the nature! Since we were not on site much, we didn’t get the experience meeting the animals which I would have loved! Well done Derek!

An absolute 10/10 experience, a beautiful little farm surrounding a comfortable and cozy place to stay! Across the road there are valuable amenities to buy fresh produce and treats, with the Stickleback bar and grill ~500m away. Far enough out of Sooke to avoid traffic but close enough that its hardly anything to get there, would recommend to anyone for a home away from home or a staging area for the great nature surrounding them!

Sooke Getaway

We wanted to come up to Sooke for a quick getaway and a little biking on the Galloping Goose and we couldn't have picked a better spot. Comfortable bed, hot shower, cold AC. what else do you need. It was convenient to everything but also out of the bustle of downtown.
