Sweet Praise from a Sweet Bride
Look what our lovely bride Danielle recently emailed us. It’s a copy of an interview she did in Saltscapes Magazine, talking about her gorgeous wedding last summer at The Doctor’s House. We loved having her and her wonderful family and groom, and we’re happy to see that they enjoyed themselves too! But don’t take our word for it:
“There is something so genuine and sincere about the property. When we drove there the first time and rounded the turn to see the white fences with the Newfoundland ponies, the beautiful trees and flowers giving the land all sorts of colours, and then met Rosie the goat, I was sold ….. The barn is every ‘rustic-chic bride’s’ dream. It truly is. They kept the integrity of the structure and accented it with beautiful drapes to lead into the room and stunning chandeliers … Without decorating at all it creates a perfect backdrop.”
Perfect Valentine’s
This is a lucky year for all the lovers out there, since Valentine’s falls on a Saturday – breakfast in bed has never been easier! Remember too that our Sleep-In Special is tailor-made for leisurely, romantic mornings, and don’t forget they’ve got fully equipped kitchens. These red-velvet pancakes might be in your future!
Devotion Reminder
Brides, just another head’s up to mark you calendars for March 8. We’ll be at the Glacier for the Devotion Wedding Show, along with a host of other amazing wedding service providers. There’ll be lots of prizes to be won, and you’ll get to preview and plan for your wedding with the city’s finest. Don’t miss it!
Sunset Sunday: Beautiful Everywhere
Wherever you happen to be, if you can see the sunset, you can take a few minutes to pause and be grateful. I try to do that everyday, whether I’m in Newfoundland, Mexico, or who knows where. This trip has been very rejuvenating for us, after a long and busy year. Everyone needs to getaway here and there. That’s why I’m happy to say that our Whiteway cottages are open all winter (with some great specials), and The Doctor’s House will be opening up soon. And regardless of where this Sunday finds you, please take a minute to look up, see the heavens, and be grateful. God bless.
Budding Saturday: Have a Seat
Sometimes, having a seat is easier said than done. We hear that the weather has been relatively mild since we’ve been away. This picture was actually taken by Newfoundland photographer Bud Vincent a few years ago, but it’s still pretty representative of Newfoundland patios in winter! We hope you have a much cozier place to curl up on this fine Saturday!
Havin’ a Time!
Yes sir – we are having a fabulous time in Mexico, enjoying the lovely weather, the local culture, the plus-sized margaritas. Sayulita is a great place, and we’re happy to be here.
But you know we had to check out the local Irish pub – especially since it’s called Murphy’s Irish Pub! And wouldn’t you know it – Newfoundland musicians Dave Whitty and Matt Cooke showed up! What a treat to have a real taste of home, so far from home. Newfoundlanders – we’re everywhere. And we always know how to have a time!

Valentine’s Gift Certificates at The Doctor’s House
Valentine’s is little more than a week away, and romance is in the air. That’s why The Berry has come up with some special Valentine’s packages, good at The Doctor’s House. You can use them this Spring – when we’re expecting some goat and sheep babies, and the blossoming of what seemed like countless extra bulbs we planted last Fall. It’s going to be an amazing time, and a great way to reconnect with your loved one. And a great way to knock their socks off this Valentine’s! Find all the details here.
Clifford’s Feathered Friends
A very happy belated birthday to our good friend, Clifford George. A gentle soul, we can almost hear Mary Poppins singing (‘….feed the birds … toppins a bag ….’) as we write this. Thanks to Clifford and Shirley for sharing these sweet photos, and reminding us to stop and feed the birdies from time to time!
