Borthwick Country Manor

Bask in the peace and tranquility of the Patricia Bay area of Greater Victoria on Vancouver Island, British Columbia.

This English Tudor Country Manor is set on an acre of gorgeous, landscaped gardens edged by ancient oak trees. Linger in the large gardens, relax in the outdoor hot tub, or stroll on the nearby beach.

Enjoy the most peaceful night's sleep of your life in the quiet countryside; then allow yourself to be treated to a delicious full breakfast in the formal dining room or outside on the covered stone patio. Savour fresh-squeezed orange juice, Susan's very special egg dishes and homemade baking, all served by attentive, English hosts.

Located minutes from Butchart Gardens, the town of Sidney, whale watching, sailing, scuba-diving, golf courses and beaches. Easy access to Vancouver and U.S. Ferries as well as Victoria International Airport. Less than a half hour drive to the historic city of Victoria.

The perfect place to unwind...

Away from the hustle and bustle, the Manor is the perfect place to get away from it all. Take a dip in the soothing hot tub, stroll down to the beach and listen to the lapping waves of Patricia Bay. Or, curl up with a book in front of the fireplace spend a quiet, cosy evening.

The perfect place to get back to nature...

Nestled in the island country-side, the Manor offers the best of nature. Whether you like bird-watching or beach-walking, it is all at your doorstep. Just spend an afternoon on the patio and you'll see hummingbirds, rabbits, squirrels, eagles, herons and even the occasional deer cross your path. Take the short walk to the beach and you can investigate the tidal pools, full of crabs, starfish and sand dollars. You may even see a habor seal watching you.

The perfect place to enjoy life...

Whether it's nature or conversation you enjoy most, you will get the best of both at the Manor. Breakfast time invites lively conversation. The Manor has welcomed guests from all over the world and breakfast is the meeting point to exchange stories and make new friends. Once breakfast is served your hosts, Susan and Michael, enjoy getting to know you and offering suggestions for the day's activities. Take home a memory!
