Old world meets new deep in the heart of Trinity, Newfoundland. This beautifully refurbished home, rumoured to be over two hundred years old, maintains all of its character with original floorboards and antique windows, but has been updated with all the modern amenities you'll need to enjoy your stay. It is fittingly perched on a hillside overlooking the popular tourist town. Whether you're nestled up next to the wood stove or lounging outside on the large deck with a book from a stocked library of Newfoundland writers, you'll find yourself sinking into the house just as the light sinks into the bay at dusk. The house is adorned with Newfoundland relics, and the walls showcase a wide selection of notable art for your viewing pleasure, unless you become distracted by the scenic views framed by each window throughout the house. The main level features an open-concept living and dining room area with a spacious kitchen and bathroom on the same level. Upstairs features two sizeable bedrooms with plush queen beds, a half bath and a loft that includes a sitting area, writing desk and two cozy twin beds.

Trinity is like a living historical village and we loved exploring the Bonavista peninsula and going to see the puffins at Elliston. The house is full of character (slanted floors and hand hewn floor boards through which you can peer down to the kitchen) and has a good selection of books. The view is also lovely and you can look out to the ocean from the top sitting room.
We had a great stay here! The home (and town) have been well kept to keep the traditional feel. Rebecca’s home has lots of character and her collection of art was very interesting. The home was clean and close to the town’s amenities. A beauty of a spot!

So glad you appreciated the character of the home and its proximity to the best of what Trinity has to offer! Thanks for your booking and you're welcome back anytime. Safe travels!
Very nice place. Rustic and quirky. Great base for exploring the Bonavista peninsula. Check in/out went smoothly. Grill didn't work but that was not a huge deal.
Trinity is a very beautiful town and the cottage fits into the historic landscape. We had dinner at the Dock Marina which was very good

Glad you appreciated the heritage of the house and the town - and a great dinner too by the sounds of it! We appreciate having you as a guest. Safe travels!
Trinity is a quaint little town. We had an easy drive to Elliston to see puffins and Bonavista to see the lighthouse. There is a great little fish market in Bonavista with fantastic scallops and fresh lobster. We had a feast!

Glad you had such a great time staying in the area! Thanks for your booking and safe travels to you. Cheers!
Staying in this lovely little house feels like stepping back in time. Can’t say enough about how amazing it was to stay here. Location was perfect, view of the lighthouse in the early morning mist and listening to the comforting foghorn in the distance was good for the soul. The beautiful book that the host gifted to us was a lovely surprise. The energy in this gem of a place feels like a warm hug from your favorite Nan. We will be back!
This is a great vintage house in the heart of Trinity. Perfect for up to six. Easy check in and responsive host. Clean and cared for.Would stay again and recommend to any travelers.
