Luxury getaways to the ocean's edge
Here is Herman, a local fisherman, catching lobster about 100 feet in front of the cottages. He brought them over to us, and this was the result:
We invited our new Events Manager, Lindsay, over for what she later called the best lobster she’d ever had! When you live here in the Wonderful World of Whiteway, clearly, seafood is as fresh as it gets! (And don’t forget, our Spring Special is still available until June 11!)
Lindsay, our new Events Manager, has barely been here a week, and she’s settling in nicely. She recently helped move our baby goats from their shelter, to join the rest of the flock (if you can stand the cute overload, see the video here). She’s a natural with the kids and lambs, and all the four leggeds around here.

This Spring keeps getting cuter and cuter. This weekend we had a very important pick-up, that has increased the sweet-factor in the barn considerably: namely, 16 chicks and 7 ducklings! The chicks are in the greenhouse under a heat lamp, the ducklings are safely tucked away in the barn until they get a little bigger, and The Berry is in her glee! Make sure to stop by for a little ‘hello’ if you’re at The Doctor’s House soon!
I’m excited about this one, because breakfast is my favourite meal of the day. And we’ve just released a new breakfast menu at The Doctor’s House. You don’t need to be an overnight guest to enjoy it either – just a fan of locally sourced and exquisitely prepared food! For more details, contact info@doctorshousenewfoundland.com, or just see below!
Happy Mother’s Day to all you beautiful mothers out there! Here’s three beautiful mothers enjoying the cottages – The Berry, with her mom, and her daughter. Three generations of wonderful women I’m proud to now call family. God bless, and God bless all the mothers out there.
How are you treating mum this year? Perhaps it’s with Mother’s Day Brunch at The Doctor’s House? Offered from 8:30am until 1, start a new tradition, a million miles away from ordinary. And add a spa treatment if you really want to be the favourite this year!
Pre-warned – this video is super cute, and super loud! Jack and Jill, our new baby goats, recently learned that it’s a big, big world out there. They’ve gotten big enough to join the rest of the herd – and join them they did!
Everyone took a few moments to adjust to the new hierarchy, but soon after, everything – and everyone – was back to normal. Jack and Jill are becoming more confident each day. So if you’re a guest at the inn, restaurant or spa at The Doctor’s House, make sure you stop by to see how they’re doing!
Finally, here’s a simple reminder that Dining at The Doctor’s House is open tonight and tomorrow, and you don’t need to be an overnight guests to dine with us. We hope to see you there!
They say a picture’s worth a thousand words, right? This beauty was captured by our good friend, Allison George, of Allison George Photography, at a recent photo shoot at The Doctor’s House. I’m not sure if there’s much I can to make this blog post any better – except, be sure to check out Weddings at The Doctor’s House if you’d like to see more pictures like this one.
Well, we did the impossible – we got The Doctor’s Guest House ready for our opening last weekend. We were working hard to get it finished, but then, this industry is all about working for your guests, now, isn’t it? So, we were happy to get this 4 bedroom house, overlooking Trinity Bay, ready for its first occupants.
Remember, The Doctor’s Guest House is just steps away from our main inn and wedding loft (making it great for wedding parties!), and we currently have a weekend special making it even easier for you and your family, or you and a group of friends, to enjoy it. Find more pictures here, and please email info@doctorshousenewfoundland.com to learn more or make a reservation!
Due to a busy schedule at The Doctor’s House, we were unable to be as involved with the Whiteway Spring Hare this year. But we know it’s an event not to be missed. This yearly artistic community event showcases all the wonderful talent in our little community, and our little island, and it’s always a treat to hear the recitals, poems and stories. Here’s a big thanks to the Spring Hare Committee, comprised of many of our friends, for putting on yet another amazing event!
