Lovely quiet B & B
What a wonderful B & B close to all Kelowna attractions but in a very quiet neighbourhood. After a glitch upon arrival, all was fantastic. Very clean and comfortable. Hosts were welcoming and friendly, breakfast was lovely and plentiful as was afternoon tea with yummy homemade scones served in their pretty living room. Parking was easy.

This was a wonderful place tucked up in a quiet neighborhood away from all the “touristy” activities but close enough to enjoy those places when we wanted to. The view is beautiful from the balcony in the back. We arrived in the afternoon just in time for scones and tea that our gracious hostess had just prepared. The breakfasts were so satisfying with fresh juices, fruit and yogurt and a nicely prepared savory plate of cooked breakfast. Our hostess was delightful and very attentive to anything we needed. She also had great tips on several really nice restaurants as well as wineries in the area-there are so many! I can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay here. I would highly recommend it!

We loved our stay at touch of English! Clare was a great host, providing us with multiple suggestions to do on our trip - all of which were amazing and exactly what we were looking for! Clare also went above and beyond, pouring me coffee in the morning out on the deck and bringing me blankets to keep warm. Kelly prepared a delicious breakfast each day that we very much enjoyed. We were able to pack some of Kelly’s freshly baked croissants to make sandwhiches for our hike. We stayed in the Devonshire room which had unbelievable views and the pool was perfect after a long day of hiking. I’d highly recommend this property and look forward to visiting again!

So sorry - you did not have a good experience, you seemed to enjoy your stay with us and talked about coming back another time, the extra bed was to accommodate the third person, which we had said it would be very tight in the room. I wish you had talked to us directly.

We had a wonderful stay here! We had never stayed in a Bed and Breakfast before, but it was really lovely. Our first night there we were greeted by Clare and Kelly and they were both very friendly and kind. After settling in we were sitting by the pool and Clare brought us wine and dessert! It was amazing. The room was very clean as well as the bathroom. It was very quiet as well at night and we absolutely loved the pool area. Breakfast was great each morning as well. We also liked getting to know the other guests and over all our experience was really fun! The location is great as well because it was close to a lot of the wineries we wanted to do. We would stay again!

Perfect breakfast and cleanliness
It was my first experience to stay nights in B&B. I was so curious before I Arrived. But my worries has gone when I was there.The kind owner welcomd me and guided me to the bedroom, bathroom, dining room and the living room. The breakfasts were sooooooo great like a nice top restaurant. Any drinks were available. The Kelowna view was perfect from the dining room and the living room. Everything was clean and perfect. After all I felt the B&B was far better than a hotel. It was one of my best comfortable experience. Thank you very much.
