The Howard House Daniel’s Cove

A serene Newfoundland retreat, surrounded by nature and the rugged beauty of the Atlantic coast, this historic house at the tip of the Avalon Peninsula. Built in 1908, the house was lovingly restored in 2018, maintaining much of its original features and construction, highlighting the simple but elegant architectural styles of Newfoundland at the beginning of the 20th century. It has a spacious layout with a well-appointed kitchen, 1½ baths, and three ample bedrooms. WIFI Starlink available

The house is situated in a tiny hamlet with unobstructed ocean views, a short 5-minute walk to a rocky beach in this community that once hosted a thriving fishing plantation, now a small collection of cottages. Enjoy watching humpbacks breach and other whales (fin, minke, and even orcas, have been spotted) from the shoreline during the summer months. Seabird enthusiasts will be captivated by the diving gannets and kittiwakes, as well as horned owls and eagles. The adventurous can take part in the 5-km hike to Grates Cove, with its historic rock walls built by early settlers of Irish ancestry, and views of the ecological reserve, Baccalieu Island. Another highlight is the nearby community of Bay de Verde, accessed via a short car ride, or by a longer hike on a shared use trail from neighbouring Old Perlican
