- OUR GUEST COMMENTS FOR THE YEAR 2003 -

Thank you very much for the food and Safari House.  Everything was great.  We appreciated you having us.
Sherry and Luke F., Surrey, BC, Canada

Thanks so much for the great stay.  I enjoyed it very much.
Kris M., Hinton, AB, Canada

We enjoyed our night in The Safari House very much.  Everything was perfect - dinner, breakfast, everything!!  I can honestly say I will be back, the rooms are really beautifully decorated and the bathrooms are AWESOME!!  Thanks a million.
Melissa and Scott, Burnaby, BC, Canada

Thank you so much for providing the best anniversary ever.  We loved everything.  Your place is beautiful and the restaurant was amazing.  We will be telling everyone about this place.  "A Night in Heaven".  You guys have made this the perfect weekend ever.  Your rooms are amazing!  Thanks for everything again.
Lisa and Michael, Burnaby, BC, Canada

Thank you for providing a haven before a long journey and after a long journey.  Your warm welcome has added to my trip to Peru (perhaps a Llama or two?)  Your service to and from the airport was a real godsend.  The decor of the suite makes it more a home from home than a place to pass the night.  I'll be spreading the good news (in the Comox Valley) that you are there.  Thanks again.
Tom M. Courtenay, Vancouver Island, BC, Canada

Thank you very much for the lovely time!  Dinner was absolutely amazing (I thought little romantic restaurants like that, only existed in the movies).  The Safari House is extraordinarily decorated and pleasing to our eyes.  The mini-tour we got from Brian was great.  I'm going to bring my friends back to Steveston because it is just gorgeous!  Thank you so much for spoiling Andrew and I.  Many thanks.
Lauren and Andrew D., Langley, BC, Canada

Thank you for all the lovely "little things"!  We thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet and all the sumptuous breakfasts.  We felt very much at home except we were more appreciated.
Pauline, Michael, Brendon and Rachel V., Victoria, BC, Canada

A very good start to our Canadian holiday.  Very friendly and informative on all things Canadian, superb breakfasts and we hope to return some day.
Geoff and Anna H., Townsville, Queensland, Australia

Well, here we are back again now at the end of a lovely holiday and what an excellent way to start and finish it.  Thank you for looking after us, we will be recommending you to everyone who will listen!  Best wishes and hope to see you again on our next visit.  P.S.  Thank you very much for letting us relax in The Safari House until our flight late in the evening.  Very kind and much appreciated.  P.P.S.  Thank you for the bubbly, sparkly send off (with strawberries)!!
Paul and Karina C., Suffolk, England

This is a great place to stay and a very nice ambience has been created in your accommodation.  I have stayed in dozens of B&B's in our country and outside and this one of the top 20.  Thanks again.
Shirley D.

This has been a superb ending to our 3 week holiday in and around Alberta and B.C.  Thank you for recommending The Seafood Restaurant - the food was delicious and watching the sunset was awesome!  Our accommodation was/is fantastic, you've thought of everything we needed to relax and unwind - and what can we say about breakfast - just great.  Back home to England now (to start our diets!!).  Thanks for taking us in at short notice too!!  Hope we can visit again sometime during our travels to Canada.  Take care.
Olive and Jim, Ipswich, England

Many many thanks for your kindness and consideration.  I really enjoyed my stay and will come again, (I hope in the near future).  You have a beautiful place.  May you have a wonderful future here.  I shall always think of my time chatting with you both.  Fond wishes.  "Bless You".
Olive P., Courtenay, BC, Canada

This is like a little "Paradise".  Beautiful Garden, swimming pool and all kinds of places to sit and relax and a breakfast at The Stone Hedge so sumptuous to remember for a long time.
Your friend Vivian M., Montreal, QC, Canada

From the fleecy robes and the chocolate on our pillows to the fabulous breakfasts in the morning, The Stone Hedge surpassed all expectations.  Thanks for the terrific stay!
Rita and David K., Edmonton, AB, Canada

You have set the standard for our B&B accommodations on this holiday!  Thank you for looking after us so well - we have delighted in all the detail (especially the flowers in the you-know-where!) it is the kind gestures that turn a really, really good B&B into a really excellent one and you have excelled!  Looking forward to coming back in two weeks time and going all "African".
Karina and Paul C., Suffolk, United Kingdom

Great breakfast.  Lovely Place.  Thanks for all the information - must return one day.
Joan and Graham C., Leighton, United Kingdom

Thank you for providing my first taste of Canadian Hospitality!  Your house is stunning as was the breakfast.  Thanks for making my first night in Canada so wonderful!
Jen and Ryan, Sydney, Australia

We had a really wonderful night in your beautiful Safari House.  Thank you very much for your warm hospitality and great food.  We will definitely come back again.  Will see you soon!
Frances and Eddie, Vancouver, BC, Canada

A place to recommend to friends and family.  Thank you so much.
Reiner F., ON, Canada

I had mixed emotions of leaving family and Ontario.  But our first night in Richmond was wonderful.  You really made us feel welcomed.  A truly wonderful experience.  We thank you so much for our stay.  Excellent Food, outstanding service.  A little piece of paradise.  Thank you again.
Jackie and Reiner F., Richmond, BC, Canada

Take it from a "3rd Timer", this is a great place to stay!  Thanks as usual.
Andrew O., Lakefield, ON, Canada

Sorry about the bad printing - my motor skills are not very good in the morning.  So anyway thank you for letting us stay at this very fine establishment.  The food was absolutely marvelous!
Jamie H. Age 12, Shawnagin Lake, BC, Canada

Thanks for the wonderful time.
Mike O. Lakefield, ON, Canada

The ultimate hosts!  We have never been so pampered and relaxed as at this sojourn.  Believe us when we say you have not seen the last of the...
Phipps-Carpentars, WA, USA

This is the first night we have ever spent in Canada and what a treat!  It's difficult to imagine how the rest of our trip can live up to it.  The room, and  all your hospitality are the best welcome we could have hoped for.  Thank you.
Tanya B., Bonn, Germany and Jonathan F., Bedfordshire, United Kingdom

Well, exactly one year on and we did return!!  The high level of expectation was more than fulfilled.  Your recommendations of where to go and stay were yet again brilliant. Can't make next year as off to New Zealand but already looking forward to 2005.  Nice to see the rare species was still in resident.
John and Bev C., Worcester, England

I completely forgot what day it is.  I'm so comfortable.  Thank y'all so very very much.  I have read some of the other notes and I agree with all of them.  In my future I will always eat my ice cream with maple syrup and my watermelon with honey/lime/ginger sauce.  I thank you and my baby thanks you (especially for the breakfast and the rest and my husband thanks you).  Thank you so much for your hospitality.  We had a wonderful stay and delighted in your stories of Africa and "Drake's Nuevo Albion.  With great thanks.
Alex and Holly M., Boulder, CO, USA

The experience was far more than expected - and we had HIGH expectations!!  The hospitality was impeccable, the decor was detailed, warm and full of surprises (Q-Tips and shower caps hidden in the bathrooms!!), and the food....I've NEVER had a 5 course breakfast!!  What spectacular presentation!
Rob and Janna S., Remy and Ben S., Virginia Beach, USA

Our best stay pretty well anywhere.  Love the bed - the privacy and hospitality.  Will recommend and return.
Dan and Darelene M., Union Bay, BC, Canada

Many thanks for your gracious hospitality.  What a lovely setting for a B&B.  Your gardens and poolside is so relaxing and peaceful.  "Serenity in The City".  The Royal Suite is appropriately named.  Well done!
Gail and Bill R., Kamloops, BC, Canada

Thank you for providing such  a wonderful place!  This was the best stop on our Western Canada vacation and what a wonderful stop it was.  Cool pool waters, cool beverages and very warm and friendly host and hostess.  What a delight.  We enjoyed meeting you and loved our short stay.  Hopefully we will get a chance to visit again.
Nancy and Wayne V., Gretchen and Jim R., Ballstin Lake, NY, USA

It was so nice to see you all again.  We think you guys are so lucky to live in such a beautiful province and sport such a nice home.  Thanks for spending time on us and with us.  We loved The Safari House and love you guys.
Josh S., Calgary, AB, Canada

Thank you Linda and Brian and let's not forget "Manuel".....Breakfast was delectable and the sights and sounds of The Stone Hedge were nothing but splendid.  Not sure where else we would be treated as Royalty.  We appreciate your hospitality and your generous efforts to explore and relax.  Until next time....The Newly Weds.
Josh and Mirelle S., Calgary, AB, Canada

Thank you Brian and Linda for your incredible warm and friendly hospitality.  I have loved everything about our stay here - especially the breakfasts.  I'm carrying home with me an extra five pounds just to prove it.  The welcoming sign on the gate "Our Home is Your Home "says it all.  Many thanks.
Marlene M., St. Albert, AB, Canada

Thank you so much for everything.  Your eye for detail has made you standout from the rest.  No little touch or effort went unnoticed by us....the porcelain bride and groom on our pillow the night of our anniversary, the "Notes" on the blackboard.....Thank you Linda for the incomparable breakfasts and Brian for your humour and wit.  You are quite a team.  Best wishes always and continued success!
Tracy J., Edmonton, AB, Canada

Very Well Done!  Great design and decor.  Fantastic food.  The perfect blend of hosting and privacy.  Informative history stories and local "where-it's-at" help.  Gifted and successful Innkeepers.  Are known for their extras -  The changing reading material, the ice and glasses for our champagne, the homegrown blooms used, uh, everywhere.  You will do well.  Thanks for a memorable stay.
Randy J., Edmonton, AB, Canada

Well what can we say?  Our first experience of Canada and Canadian B&B's.  We have had a wonderful time here with you.  Thank you so much for your incredible hospitality and for making us so welcome in your lovely home.  We will remember your thoughtfulness, the S&S (sumptuous and scrumptious) breakfasts, all the many extras and the numerous lifts for a long time.  We will certainly tell all our friends about The Stone Hedge.  Thanks again for a memorable stay.
Sam and Janet P. and  Mike and Maureen S., Kent, England
