A separate dining room next to the kitchen awaits you to set that special ambiance. Relax and enjoy your favourite shows on the Smart 50” TV in the living room.
Your bedroom, next to the living room, is furnished with a medium-firm pillow-top queen-size bed with quality linens. Next to your bedroom, you will find a large bathroom with a shower and an oversized bathtub where you can almost swim in! This space is ideal for a couple but can accommodate a small family of up to 4 with the sectional queen sofabed. For those who are seeking to work remotely, we have a large workstation, with free, fast, and stable internet with 1000 Mbps.
SUITE AMENITIES:

LOCATION:
Our heritage manor is located in the heart of Fairfield, a charming historical neighbourhood with many century-old heritage homes on quiet tree-lined streets leading to the Salish Sea, the famous Dallas Road waterfront, Clover Point Park, and many beaches including picturesque Gonzales Bay, and dramatic views of the Olympic Mountains. Within a minute's easy walk from us is Cook Street Village, a lively strip featuring laid-back eateries, cafés, sidewalk patios, grocery stores, and small local shops. The vibrant and popular Moss Street Market, a weekly summer outdoor market, is only a few blocks away. Many of the attractions are within walking distance from us, such as the Craigdarroch Castle, the Government House, Beacon Hill Park, and the Inner Harbour. For anyone who appreciates Victorian, Edwardian, and Craftsman homes, or who wants a change of pace from the hustle and bustle of Downtown, look no further than our unique neighbourhood. The proximity to Downtown, the waterfront, parks, attractions, amenities, public transit, and bike routes make our property a perfect place to live, work and visit. Many of our guests described our location as great or perfect.
We are about:
HISTORY:
This large three-level Craftsman, chalet style, heritage manor was designed by the famous Canadian architect, Samuel Maclure, in 1912 for a prominent local businessman who was well-known for his interest in the prohibition movement and church and was president of the YMCA. The building has since been converted into seven self-contained suites over two decades ago. The suites, all unique from each other, ranging from studio to 1-bedroom suites, all have their own kitchen and bathroom. The manor, known as Trutch Manor Suites, had for many years been Victoria's popular bed and breakfast. The manor is now renamed “Larkspur Manor Suites” to pay homage to the beautiful Victoria, City of Gardens. Larkspur is an old-fashion flower that comes in a variety of shades, with beautiful meanings, most commonly used to symbolize love, affection, strong attachment, happiness, and a pure heart. We believe Larkspur beautifully represents our manor in welcoming people from all shades to have a wonderful, happy experience, whether they are here for a special occasion, holiday making, or to reconnect with loved ones and families. As the new owner with years of hospitality experience hosting travelers, business professionals, and international students from all over the world, and as a super host, and premiere host, I am excited and pleased to continue offering this wonderful manor as your home away from home while you are visiting or working in Victoria.
THINGS TO NOTE:
Please note, the washroom is ensuite, in the bedroom.
There is a set of stairs leading to the suite and it is not wheelchair accessible. As such, it will be challenging for those with mobility difficulties.
Laundry is at the building in our basement and is coin-operated. You will need 2 loonies (2 $1 coins) each to wash and dry. Laundry is between 9 am - 8 pm.
Our posted rate is for double occupancy. Additional charge applies after 2 people. If you are two travelers and prefer to have separate sleeping arrangements, please let us know in advance, we are happy to prepare extra bedding for an additional fee of $50/stay to cover costs for additional off-site professional laundry services and for additional housekeeping preparation.
Our 4-year-old dog, Cosmo, a medium-sized Labradoodle, stays with me at the property. You may see him play outside in the courtyard. If you are nervous around dogs, please let me know and I will limit his presence outside.
We have motion sensor security cameras on the outside of our building which stay on during your stay. One at the main entrance near the door outside, one on the side of the building above the gate, one near the fire escape near Unit 7, and one on the garage in our parking lot. We do not have any devices inside the building or in any of the private spaces.
If you have any questions, concerns, or need anything, please do not hesitate to contact me.
