Thanks, Zane!

Shag Rock in Whiteway NewfoundlandWe love when former guests and travelers share their photos of our Wonderful World of Whiteway. And since Sunday is Shag Rock day on the blog, we’re happy to share these lovely shots from Zane’s Photographical Journey, who reach out to share some photos he took last summer. Thanks, Zane, for sharing!Atlantic Ocean as seen from our Newfoundland cottage rentals

Spring Specials at The Doctor’s House

Areial shot of the doctor's house, our newfoundland resort inn and spaA few days ago we wrote about our Spring Specials at the cottages, but we’d be remiss if we didn’t also point out that our sister property, The Doctor’s House, has some tempting offers, too. We’ll be open there for Easter and Mother’s Day, offering a fabulous brunch prepared by our in-house chef. We also have options to add a second night for $99, or two 60-minute Aveda spa treatments for $129. That, plus a relaxing Girls’ Retreat weekend, are already proving to be quite popular – so don’t wait too long to make a reservation! For all our specials, please see here.

Mud Dogs

Dogs playing in rural Newfoundland near our cottage rentalsFriday and Murphy may seem like perfect gentlemen, but even their paws (and more) get muddy when they’re out playing in of the many watering holes around the cottages. But they’re so happy when the weather cooperates and we can take them out for a dip, that it’s worth the clean up! Thankfully, we welcome pets at the cottages for a small fee, so lots of dogs come stay with us, and our boys get to make new, fast friends. It’s always fun to chase old sticks with new friends.

Spring Specials

Celebrating Spring at our Newfoundland cottage rentalsA little birdie told us – after all this weather, we’re in for a great spring. At least it will be if you come join us at the cottages! That’s why we’re excited to roll out our Spring Specials. All April and May, stay at any of our cottages and receive a complementary snack and movie basket and bottle of house wine. Or, take advantage our nearby sister property The Doctor’s House and add some luxurious spa packages to you stay. After this winter, you deserve it!

 

A Reflective Reflection

Sun setting over Shag Rock as seen from our ocean front cottage rentals in NewfoundlandNothing calms me and fills me up like watching the sun set over the ocean. It’s why I’ll always be grateful The Berry and I made the move to the Wonderful World of Whiteway – we have front row seats every night for our own personal showing. On a clear night, with the sun reflecting on the sometimes still waters of the harbour – it’s pure magic.

Thanks, Paul!

Ponies at our newfoundland resort inn and spaWe like to share beautiful Newfoundland photography when we can (we try our best to get great shots, but we’re not artists!). Thanks to our neighbour at The Doctor’s House, Paul Seymour, for sharing this gorgeous shot of our ponies enjoying their lunch and a sunny day. And have a great weekend!

Twilight Hour

Watching the sun set over the Atantic Ocean in St. john'sSo ok, ok, it’s true – we haven’t had the best winter. But when twilight hour strikes, there’s still some magic there! We’re busy here putting together some new Spring specials and packages. Just take a cue from the Little Engine that Could – instead of ‘I think I can, I think I can,’ keep saying ‘I think it’s Spring, I think it’s Spring!’ It’ll start to warm up before we know it!

Beautiful Wedding Photos at The Doctor’s House

Wedding at the doctor's house in newfoundlandWe haven’t hosted any weddings at The Doctor’s House yet – that’s coming up this summer. But last year a few couples came to take their wedding photos with us – it was learning experience for us, and they got to take some gorgeous shots.

Thank you to Krista Cooper, who recently shared these lovely photos taken last summer. Her sister-in-law Janice married Ace Steward last July. These beautiful images were taken by Sally Ledrew and Judi Stone, and while with such a gorgeous couple it would be hard to have anything less than stunning photos, we love how these capture the essence of The Doctor’s House, and how The Doctor’s House adds to their charm. Find more pictures of the happy couple on our Facebook site, and stay tuned, as we hope to share lots more happy wedding photos with you soon!
