‘Cowboy comfort with atmostphere and western hostpitality’ - Birds of a Feather B&B in Victoria, BC
One of the best things about Twin Gables is its location — quiet enough that I didn’t hear a thing outside after retiring for the night, yet an easy 5- to 10-minute walk to a slew of wonderful restaurants. Best of all, since we were in town for a hockey game, the Pengrowth Saddledome was a simple 15- to 20-minute walk away, and safe, too. I bet we got back to the B&B before some of the people who drove to the game were even able to get out of the parking lot.
