I had the pleasure of staying at Abinger House a few days Aug-Sep 2012. They graciously accommodated me despite being a 'full-house'! I'd checked *everwhere* for an open room with no luck on a weekend with multiple festivals being held. Despair had started to set in when I got the call with someplace to stay! Wonderful location in a pleasant... More

Great place. Walking distance from many nice places. Susan was so helpful in her recommandations for dining and sightseeing. She was also very helpful in retrieving the camera we had forgotten in a restaurant the night before. Breakfasts were so delicious. And she took the time to chat with us. We felt at home. The rooms are lovely with modern... More

Susan and Michael are amazing hosts. Their attention to detail was excellent: from the tea, cake, and biscuits served in the library upon our arrival to a complete tour of their establishment. Susan is a great communicator and offered many tips and travel advice for the Victoria area. My family agrees that we could sit and listen to her talk... More

I had a wonderful visit to Abinger House. My plane was three hours late but Mike still met me at the airport thanks to great coordination from Susan back at the house. The room and garden provided the best setting of any B & B I have seen. Susan`s breakfasts are second to none. A wonderful experience in every way... More

I loved the attention to detail at Abinger House -- the way the two proprietors had thought of so many ways to make a person's visit pleasant. Wonderful breakfast the next day, a beautiful garden outside, a nice view from the Ranmore Room (at the back of the house) -- and beautiful soaker tub in the Ranmore's en suite.

Abinger House proved to be a most enjoyable place to stay while in Victoria. Susan met us at the door and not only showed us to our room but made us tea and served us cookies as well. Susan and Michael are exceptional hosts. They were there when you needed them and yet not intrusive to your space or time.... More

Abinger House is an oasis of calm and comfort. We enjoyed wonderful truly homemade breakfasts, exceptional comfort and decor in our room, as well as a beautiful garden and a perfect location (quiet and convenient). Hosts, Susan and Michael, were very pleasant and helpful. We have rarely experienced such exceptional accomodations.

My husband and I have stayed in a number of Bed & Breakfasts, and always enjoyed the experience, but the Abinger House is in a class all its own! Beautiful bedroom, incredible bathroom (nice big tub and very large separate shower), exquisite gardens, tea and cake every afternoon, chocolates on our bedside table each morning, spring water - what's not...

We stayed for 7 nights at Abinger House. The room, food and service were all excellent. The hosts, Susan and Michael, were friendly, helpful and extremely pleasant to deal with.

We stayed for 2 nights at the Abinger house and the room was great and the hosts were amazing. It was our first time to Victoria and the hosts gave us great information about the area and places to see and eat. The room was spacious and clean. We felt right at home. The garden out back was beautiful and... More
