Great B&B experience
We enjoyed our stay -- comfy bed with nice linens, very clean, elegant breakfast, and great location. Although it is not an isolated home (neighbors are close), once inside it feels very cozy and relaxing. Short walk to Capilano suspension bridge and short drive (5 mins) up to Grouse Mountain. We drove 10-15 mins into North Vancouver waterfront area for some nice dinners out. Enjoyed conversation with Brian, our host, at breakfast.

Brian emailed us beforehand wanting asking us our arrival time and if we had any dietary restrictions. When we arrived the house was warm and inviting. Our room was ready and everything was very clean and Brian was very welcoming. The breakfasts were amazing and we were delighted each morning with the quality of the food! Brian talked to us at length about fun things to do and great places to eat and really made our trip enjoyable. We would recommend ThistleDown house to everyone we know!

The best there ever was!
ThistleDown House should be a destination in itself! I will spend the rest of my life making an effort to go back there. It was perfect in every way--a beautifully maintained historical home with every detail attended to. I loved my stay here. I wish it would have been longer!

Great B&B
We stayed here for 3 nights and enjoyed our stay immensely. The breakfast served each morning came in 3 courses and with conversations with other guests you can expect it to last about 90 minutes. Great amenities and snacks and we found a nice little deli just down the road for dinner one night. Brought food back and sat out in the garden and enjoyed the cool evening. Room was comfortable with a large bed. This is definitely on our list to return to.
