My wife and I have stayed here a number of times, while visiting Chemainus for an evening at the theatre. The house is very attractive inside and out and is always spotless. Lynn and John Landygo offer the most comfortable and hospitable accomodation within a very easy walk of "downtown" Chemainus. In the morning, you will find an equally enjoyable... More

And guests like you, Mark & Jane, is the reason we do B&B. We may not solve any problems at the breakfast table but we do have a lot of fun and good conversation. More

My stay at this wonderful B and B is the best. Great breakfast, great room and most of all great host. I plan on staying again when I return in Dec. The room was very comfortable. I enjoyed the breakfast, which was very delic. and filling. Host were great company. Walking distance to downtown Chemainus.

Our first trip to the Landygo's home was in 2007 and our return trip in 2012. Both times it has been a delightful visit. A newer house designed to look turn of the century, it is full of charm! The breakfast is always great and sets the standard to which all other B & B's are put up against. The... More

Our first experience at staying at a B&B was nearly 10 years ago at It's a Small World. With such a positive experience we have visited numerous B&B's on many of our holidays since, however, none have matched the wonderful accomodation and delicious breakfast enjoyed here. While back in the area we booked a couple of days to find nothing... More

A Small World consists of rooms scattered throughout an older residence not far from town, the murals, and the renowned Chemainus Theatre. John and Lynn make it home, from the historic touches in the rooms to the wonderful home-cooked breakfast in the morning. The other guests were interesting (repeat visitors from up-island) and we found ourselves lingering long after we... More

I stayed here during a solo cycling trip from Victoria to Campbell River. It was my first experience staying at a B+B, and I would definitely come back! The room was comfortable, with a private bathroom. There is a shared lounge area with a large library of DVDs to watch, and free wireless internet which is fast and reliable. The... More

This was my first experience with a B&B. If they're all this good, it won't be my last. I'm from Seattle and made a week-long trip up Vancouver Island in late July. Chemainus was my second stop. Admittedly, I was a little nervous trying something new like this -- but that ended the moment I walked up to the porch... More

We stayed here July 30th/09. It was sweltering outside, but cool and comfortable in our rooms. The best French Toast I have ever eaten. The hosts Lynne and John were a delight. I would recommend staying here on your next visit to Chemainus.
