This is a beautiful property that I'm worried we visited on a bit of an off week as the proprietor had just returned from vacation. The good - The property and area really are quite beautiful, and we had a lovely view from our room. Breakfast was high quality, and what of it I could have (pregnant, so no runny eggs or cured meats) was tasty. The hosts make great recommendations and can book reservations and excursions for guests. The jetted tub was a welcome surprise. The could-be-improved - Note that if you book thru a 3rd party, you will not receive any communication prior to arrival and will need to remember that there is a 2hr check-in window. This was an issue for us as our ferry from Vancouver arrived late. The suite we had wasn't in full working order as both the light in the stairwell entry and cooking range weren't working. We only discovered the latter after buying groceries to make a late dinner on our last night after a busy day of sightseeing, and so went to bed hungry (I'm pregnant so that was not fun. In my mind, if a major facility of the suite isn't functioning, that should be called out at check-in and some reasonable accommodation made.) Various conveniences were missing - anywhere to charge a phone next to the bed, trash bin in kitchen, cream(er) for morning coffee (the pod coffee was pretty bad anyway), and though the bed seemed comfy at first, I woke up both nights with hip/back pain. Not exactly the 5-star experience I had hoped for, sadly.

The room is so fabulous, nice and clean, high ceiling, spacious bathroom with 2 shower heads. The morning breakfast is exceptionally delicious, freshly baked goods, smoked salmon egg Benedict, fresh fruits, parfait...etc. All the staff there are very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended. We'll definitely come back again.

What a wonderful property, ran by a wonderful staff. Felt like a home, wish we could've have stayed longer. Not far from downtown but far enough that you got that neighborhood feel.

Elegant and comfortable Rockland home
This stately home adjacent to the Lieutenant Governor's lands has views to the sea, and its own resident deer and bird populations. The owners, Sylvia and Ross and all members of staff make you feel truly welcome. Furnishings are comfortable and beautiful, and breakfast is a dream. This bed and breakfast has been an oasis to me!

This is a fantastic bed and breakfast! We just loved the character of this property and the surrounding area. The owner, Sylvia, is an amazing baker/chef and genuinely took an interest in our plans and offered up places to see and places to eat. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay!

Was welcomed the first day to a warm and inviting room. The morning after at breakfast, upon updating a female staff of our intent to leave early the next day for our flight and check out process requirements, she insisted that we have not paid for our stay and was quite condescending on it. We pulled out our bank statement as proof that payment was made but her attitude left an unpleasant taste. That night, we went back to a room where it was absolutely freezing cold, lights in the hallway turnt off, it was like they “forgot” they had guests. We will not be returning for sure.

We love the fairholme. It is beautiful, clean, well located adjacent to the lovely grounds of government house. The breakfasts are delicious. Christina, one of the staff, is delightful. Sylvia, the owner, offers customer service beyond compare.
