Important to Know
We are located mid-way on the Irish Loop which makes us an ideal home base for exploring the south easterly tip of Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula.
​
Our home was 100% renovated in 2021-22, so everything is brand new! We feature five rooms (three of which are ensuites). A complimentary full cooked breakfast is included with your stay.
We offer a set menu, gourmet-style evening meal to our room guests as well as a limited number of seats for non room guests.

What our Guests say:
They put their hearts and souls in the food and took us on a journey as they shared what each dish was, plus how they were inspired to make it.
Cheryl, USA
There’s a special kind of energy here. Even though I feel more relaxed, I’m also more energized. I somehow feel lighter, but also fulfilled.
Lupinus, China
Unbelievable experience! This is a MUST! Their rooms are clean and comfortable. The valley’s view from our back window is amazing!
