“Slice of Heaven!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

Such a lovely place! It really is a slice of heaven tucked away. The main house was stunning! My friend and I were only able to stay one night unfortunately :( Even though we were a little ahead of the season Coombs starts to come alive with tourists, Barb and Marcel were kind enough to start their season a little early and let us stay. We stayed in the room with the en suite. It had the most comfortable bed! Barb and Marcel gave us brilliant suggestions for dinner and for touristy things to see on our short trip. With maps, easy to follow directions and these fantastic ideas.. it was impossible not to enjoy ourselves. And then we come to breakfast! Oh wow. Fresh orange juice, coffee, fresh fruit, lemon pancakes, bacon, eggs, blueberries and yoghurt, topped with warm maple syrup... If i get an opportunity to go back... Thyme Away B & B will definitely be on my list. Oh and we also got to meet duster the horse and fed the lovely timid alpacas :-)

“Peace”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2011

person found this review helpful

After a very long day travelling from London, we were made very welcome on our arrival. The very clean room and comfortable bed was most welcome. After a wonderful breakfast our hosts gave us suggestions for our day in the area of Coombs. Though a wet day we followed their suggestions and had a very memorable day in the Coombs Qualicum area.
Our last morning started with another memorable breakfast and good advice for our journey to Victoria. Great hosts and would recommend Thyme Away to other travellers. G and A, New Zealand.

Room Tip: All peaceful rooms in rural location.

“Peaceful location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 September 2011

Lovely, peaceful location and very welcoming hosts. Wonderful bed, ensuite facilities, and spotlessly clean. No need for lunch after the super breakfasts that Marcel produces with such justifiable pride! Had some great chats with Barb, who is so knowledgable.

Very enjoyable to walk around the grounds, watching Duster the horse and also the three alpacas.

Very conveniently located enroute from Victoria to Ucluelet. Lots of local attractions. Thoroughly recommended to 'get away from it all'.

“A quiet sanctuary for the soul”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 August 2011

My husband and I stayed 4 nights in this b&b. We chose the room with ensuite facilities, it was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and very peaceful.
Our lovely hosts made us feel very welcome, we were given lots of info on the local area including restaurant recommendations that we were very satisfied with.
The highlight of our stay was being served a 5 star breakfast in the dining room overlooking the beautiful view, quiet gentle music in the background.
Breakfast consisted of delicious freshly prepared fruit salad, freshly squeezed orange juice and an abundant main dish of fluffy, melt in the mouth pancakes/waffles/french toast with blueberries, fresh strawberries and warm maple syrup.
We can't wait to go back!

“We loved it!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 August 2011

A very comfortable home away from home. We were made evry welcome and the breakfasts were excellent. On our last day a bear and its cub were seen on the edge of the property - and we missed it!! We would certainly recommend.
