Quaint, clean and quiet. Not fancy, but we are not fancy. The property was clean, had a kitchen, clean bathrooms and was walkable to town.

Small town appeal

Awesome home and location. The best part was talking with the owners, Winston and Wavey. Interacting with locals is the best part of this fabulous province. A guestbook would be nice. Otherwise, terrific stay! I have already recommended it to friends and family.

A Newfoundland welcome!

Our first visit to Twillingate could not have been better. All the comforts of home. A true Newfoundland welcome, every thing you could ask for just steps away! Already planning for next year! Thank you very much!

Newfoundland 1st time visitors

Older salt box home, but tastefully decorated. brought back memories of our grandparents home. Beds were comfortable,and bedrooms large. Lookout trail behind the property was a bonus. Great view of bay. Weather was HOT, for our 3 day stay, but breeze off of the ocean made living bearable. Could have used a few more utensils in kitchen, and a lobster boil pot, however they were minimal inconveniences. Make sure to take in the Twillingate/DWI dinner theatre
