Rolling Cove Cottage- 3 Bedroom House

Rolling Cove Cottage- 3 Bedroom House

10/10 Excellent
"Charming house in Bonavista. We only stayed one night and so can't comment on much. There is one thing... the entrance to the downstairs bedroom has a step DOWN into the room. I was totally unprepared for this and fortunately managed OK. However I suggest that some sort of barrier be put there to show and/or remind people that there is an unexpected step here. But in general we would have enjoyed staying there longer."

Elliston Oasis: Every View A Coastal Masterpiece

Elliston Oasis: Every View A Coastal Masterpiece

10/10 Excellent
"This place certainly lives up to its name. It is an oasis with every view a coastal masterpiece. The chalet is comfortable, clean and well stocked with everything you would require. Bonavista is 15 minutes away and Trinity about 30. The Puffins are 10 minutes away!!! If you want to amuse yourself, sit on the deck early afternoon and watch people heading in that direction. Almost like the 401 in Toronto at rush hour. !! :) :). We went at 9:00 AM and it was perfect. There are two restaurants near by that offer eat in or take out, if your not interested in preparing your own food. Before and during our stay the host was very responsive!!!! Wonderful place!! Thank-you Gordon"
