Woodside Farm  Country Inn — retreat center

Woodside Farm Country Inn

A farmhouse pause among gardens

Canada Sooke paid

Woodside Farm Country Inn is a place to shape a slower stay around the landscape rather than a defined retreat timetable. Set on the grounds of historic Woodside Farm in Sooke, the six-room farmhouse is surrounded by farmland and gardens, giving the visit a distinctly rural character. For meditation travelers, that makes it a possible base for personal practice, reading, and time outdoors, rather than a destination with a named tradition or set group schedule. The inn’s small scale suggests a more intimate lodging experience than a large resort, though room layouts and included services should be confirmed before booking. Come for the farmhouse setting and the breathing room of the land; plan your own practice and daily rhythm, and ask the inn directly about meals, availability, and the details that will shape your stay.
