Easy French bohemian chic and the rugged sea-sprayed shores of Vancouver Island are strange bedfellows, but they get along just fine at Sooke Harbour House. Owners Frederique and Sinclair Philip may also seem like strange bedfellows, but talk to the stylish and welcoming couple for more than 15 seconds and it's clear that their views about food, life and hospitality are perfectly in synch. Over the past 28 years they've put their ideals into practice and their passionate and innovative personalities are reflected in their award-winning inn and restaurant.
