Renovated biscuit box style home. Located centrally to the best attractions.
Located on a private lot with beautiful ocean views this 1900’s biscuit box style Newfoundland home was recently renovated for modern day comfort. The area is quiet and the community friendly. It’s conveniently located centrally to all local tourists attractions or you can whale/iceberg watch right from the front veranda. The local wharf is just a 5 minute walk away where you’ll get to see local fishermen come and go with their catch. Just minutes away from restaurants, walking trails, historic towns and beautiful beaches to explore you’ll get the full Newfoundland experience. The town water supply is from a community well that is tested often for safety. It has a mild discolouration that may cause discolouration on white clothing. It is safe to shower and wash with. Use your own discretion for washing laundry. I use it to wash laundry that isn’t a pure white. I have provided a water dispenser in the kitchen area with water to drink, cook and brush your teeth. There will be an extra bottle but if you need more I will provide refills on request. To find us you’ll need to use the address 17 route 235 with Newmans Cove in the search bar of google maps. Be sure to include Newmans Cove along with street address. We are located on route 235 in the community and I’ve placed signage roadside to help you find the house.

Sheila was a great host! All the little details were very much appreciated!! The cottage has amazing character and we found having 2 bathrooms a real bonus. Highly recommend if you are looking for an authentic Newfoundland experience in the Bonavista area!! Thanks Sheila!
Everything we needed was provided. The beds were very comfortable. Very nicely decorated and clean. Communication with the host was very timely. Would recommend to my friends.

This was a beautiful property! We each enjoyed having our own rooms and a whole home. The Wi-Fi didn't work but somebody more tech intelligent than me could have probably got it working. The ares was on a boil water order and the host brought in a water dispenser/cooler so we didn't have to boil water. Super helpful!

Disappointed
House was very clean,we were very disappointed that the washer wasn’t working,and we understand that they were waiting for a part,but we would have liked to have been given notice sooner with an option to stay somewhere else; especially when we had 5 days of dirty laundry to do. We had no television or internet services either;I contacted the host and was told that they had problems earlier in the week; which we also weren’t informed of. We feel we should have been given the opportunity to stay somewhere else or at least given a refund of some monies paid.
Great location which allowed us close proximity to bonavista township. We even happened to spot whales off the coast that evening!
Kids loved the stock of games.
Was a bit hot in the bedroom withouth direct windflow, a fan would have been handy but it was unseasonably warm.
It was a wonderful view, we absolutely loved it. We had a small question about checking in but it was dealt with right away. The washer gave us a bit of a problem but overall we had a great time. Thanks
This home was PERFECT for our stay. Kids played with the provided board games and loved each having a room to themselves. The extras (bathrobes) were lovely to have and the house was immaculate. Sheila was a dream to work with and we truly wish we could have stayed longer.

Place was perfect for our group of 5. Fully stocked with everything we needed. Wifi worked well. An older home with small rooms, but the renovation is lovely and a fresh pad to park one vehicle on. We caught a gorgeous sunset one night. The surrounding area offered lots of adventuring, things to see and places to eat. Bonavista is charming.

About the host
Hosted by Sheila
I live in Newmans Cove. Moved here 12 years ago and have loved every minute of it. In summer I enjoy hanging out on the beaches, hiking in around the hills with my two dogs, berry picking, fishing, biking and kayaking. Winter is just as fun with snowshoeing, hiking, ice fishing, boil ups in the woods and sitting around a fire. I decided to host because I wanted to open Newmans Cove up to people and have them enjoy this beautiful community.
