On the Rocks Overlooking the Sea

Summary:
A perfect base for exploring Twillingate, this family and pet-friendly home is perched on the rocks overlooking Twillingate Harbour. Centrally located, you'll be able to walk directly onto beautiful hiking trails from your backyard or walk to nearby attractions, restaurants, shops and bars in the heart of Twillingate.

The Space:
On the main level of the home, there are 3 bedrooms, a large eat-in kitchen, a cozy living area and a full bath. There is a basement with a large recreation room, laundry room and 2nd full bath.

Guest Access:
You can access the entire home.

The Neighborhood:
On the Rocks is very centrally located in Twillingate. You can walk to many of the local attractions, shops and restaurants. From the back door you can walk to an area the locals refer to as Smith's lookout (cross on hill) overlooking the ocean and all of Twillingate or down to beautiful Snellings Cove where you can explore the beach and endless fields of berries.

Getting Around:
On the Rocks is up a fairly steep hill. If you do plan on walking, this is something to keep in mind.

Other Things to Note:
If you head down to the basement, you'll need to mind a very low ceiling on your way down!

Interaction with Guests:
On the Rocks is managed locally so we're only a message or call away!

Nice Home and Great Location !
Communication with the host was great from time of booking and throughout our stay. House is in a great central location. Beds are comfortable. Living room is cozy with a nice view. Sitting outside in the chairs on a hot day with the view is also really nice. This house has everything you will need for your stay!

Amazing Spot!
From the initial booking phase through to check out, our experience at On the Rocks Overlooking the Sea was seamless. Our host was so easy to communicate with, answered all our questions, and was so helpful. The house is exactly as advertised … the views were spectacular! The house was clean, well appointed, and offered all the comforts of home. Walkable distance to restaurants, tours, and shops. We would stay there again!

We had a great stay at this property. The house was very clean and well-stocked with kitchen items. We enjoyed drinking our morning tea and eating breakfast outside while overlooking the bay. The location was perfect for us for our day trips exploring the area.

OMG YOU MUST STAY HERE!
Very clean, host is great & helpful. Close to everything you can walk if you like. But, the hill to the house is a little challenging—we did it at least 4 times a day! Good exercise. Very lovey place. Bob & Sue from ON

Fantastic house for the five of us adults. Well appointed kitchen, great views out the front window, comfortable beds, even a nice hike up the hill with even broader view of town and coastline. Very enjoyable town to stay in, with great hikes and evening entertainment.
