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:
There is a set of stairs to the building, 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 you for an additional fee of $50/stay to cover costs for additional off-site professional laundry services and for additional housekeeping preparation.
Our&nbsp;4-year-old dog, Cosmo, a medium-sized Labradoodle,&nbsp;stays with me at the property.&nbsp; 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&nbsp;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&nbsp;have any questions, concerns, or need anything, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Parlor Suite in Heritage Manor, Fairfield, near DT

I am very pleased that, after much research, we chose to stay at Larkspur Manor. It is situated in a quiet residential area, yet the sights and attractions of Victoria are within easy reach. 
The Parlor Suite was spacious, light and clean and so well equipped with an array of kitchen equipment and utensils, some spices, oil etc, ground coffee, sugar, various teas and a selection of toiletries in the bathroom. This sort of attention to detail can really enhance the guest experience.
It is an ideal, and in many cases, better value for money alternative to a hotel or guest house, and I wouldn't hesitate to book again if I was to return to Victoria.


Miss

Wonderful vacation property.
Exceeded my expectations while traveling for business.
I can’t wait to book another visit when I can stay longer and bring my spouse. 
Location worked perfectly for my needs.
About a 20 minute walk to Victoria Conference Centre.
I appreciated the little touches, like three types of coffee and many special teas to choose from. Well outfitted kitchen, comfy bed & spotlessly clean!
I’ll be back!

Comfortable & clean

Great location and an excellent host, Holly was very attentive, considerate and kind. 
We were able to walk every day.
Seeing and being in Victoria in MAY is a must!
We will be visiting Holly and this suite again!

We had an awesome stay! 

We stayed a week in this suite and it felt like a second home. Best equipped vacation rental we've had. Extremely clean. Kitchen supplies were awesome. Comfortable bed and great shower. Lots of shops and cafes within walking distance and if you want a longer walk there is Beacon Hill Park or the Inner Harbour.  Noise from other suites and from the street was minimal.  Parking was always available right outside the house. We will stay again when in Victoria!

Loved the Parlour Suite
