We spent 3 nights at this property. It has amazing grounds and incredible views. Great open concept kitchen and living area with a constant view of the water! The cabin is well appointed and had everything we needed. We really loved being able to roll out the door and be right at the ECT. Frank the host was super responsive as well. 10/10 for us for sure! We hope to come again.

The property is absolutely beautiful, as advertised, and the house is lovely, as shown in the pictures. We ended up changing our plans and spent time just enjoying the area instead of heading off to “tourist attractions” every day. I highly recommend visitors pin the location (as provided) for navigation, and be sure to download the map of the area first (cell coverage can be spotty in Newfoundland).

Our all time favorite property and home! Stunning views together with a beautiful and spacious home filled with original art and high quality furnishings. The house is well-equipped and very comfortable with everything we needed and more. The location at the East Coast Trail is wonderful. We did many daily hikes and our only issue was we had to leave.

Everything was great! The house has the best view of the ocean. Within 30 minutes of arriving we saw Humpback whales swimming in the bay. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The bathroom was beautiful and had plenty of towels.

Great location and beautiful house. We watched whales and thousands of puffins from the deck every day. The section of East Coast trail than runs behind the house is excellent. Short drive to St. Johns. House was very clean. Strangely there are no electrical outlets in the bathroom. Would highly recommend.

What a beautiful place! Views were incredible. Property was wonderful. Big open living space with large windows with a spectacular view to the sea. Our family had an amazing time exploring the grounds, including the little pond. We had fun hiking a portion of the East Coast Trail that was literally at the end of the drive way and combing the nearby rock beach for starfish and sea urchins. Tore Cove was a quick drive to many local attractions and tours. We would definitely recommend this place to family and friends visiting the area.

Fantastic location right on the ocean. Spectacular views! We saw Bluefin Tuna jumping in the bay just off the rocks. Nice cottage-like feel but with a fully upgraded and modern kitchen. Would book this place again for exploring St. John’s to Portuguese Cove

Amazing seaside retreat

Beautiful place, the photos don’t do it justice. We loved exploring the grounds and walking the sections of the East Coast Trail. Perfect location to make trips into St John’s and explore the Avalon Coast. The best part was the watching the ocean, we had daily sightings of tuna breaching and sea lions. Would return in a heartbeat.

This place far exceeded our expectations....trust me the pictures do not do it justice. Everything about this property is amazing. We spent two glorious days at the beginning of August here and still cant stop talking about it. The massive picture windows, spacious open concept living area, comfy beds, well stocked kitchen, mini telescope, games, delightful pond, meandering paths, peaceful wooded areas and most importantly the stunning oceanfront make this spot truly stand out. We will definitely be back.

Its hard to put into words how stunning this property is. The views of the ocean, the well maintained grounds, the tastefully decorated house, the overall welcoming and peaceful vibe - we were blown away. Not to mention the location - just steps from the East Coast Trail and nestled in one of the provinces most beautiful areas. So much to do and see. And make sure to get up early to catch the magnificent sunrise! Our hosts were amazing and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. We will definitely return. If you are looking to make your trip to Newfoundland even more magical, you must stay here. Five stars all around.

The property and home were wonderful and the views are gorgeous. The only issue we had was with the address. If you put it into GPS it will take you to another town. The property owner helped straighten things out, but I would suggest correcting the address to Back road, Tors Cove.

This place is amazing! The view from the deck is incomparable, the house is lovely, with all the rooms on one level and completely accessible. There are lovely walking trails nearby, but it's just as enticing to sit in one of the Adirondack chairs on the deck and read and soak up the sun. A perfect getaway spot.

This place has the most unbelievable views of the ocean and landscape. It was very comfortable for my family; a wonderful place to be no matter what the weather. We saw whales from the living room, and my daughters took a short walk and saw seals. The owners were incredibly kind and accommodating, as well as quick to answer our questions.
