Wonderful spot to relax
Very warm and welcoming house on a lake in Tors Cove. Comfortable beds and attractive decor. Good base for hiking, but a car is advisable to get to trails. Wonderful deck for morning coffee amd chilling out. Host very responsive. If you need groceries, pick them up in Bay Bulls before getting to the house, as the closest convenience stores are limited.

Our host Margaret was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond in making our stay the best kind. The property and accommodations have everything you could possibly want. A better home away from home than home itself.

Amazingly well situated and equipped; kind and friendly host
Margaret told us to enjoy the cottage as we would our own, and that generous and welcoming approach made us feel comfortable from the beginning. It was lovely having such a well-equipped kitchen and so much space. The loft room was amazing for lounging, reading, and watching television as a family. It was kind and unexpected to find empty drawers and closet space. It's such a beautiful place, obviously lovingly and thoughtfully furnished and decorated. Margaret left bread, milk and butter for us and was always available when I had questions. Communication was excellent. I think the most important thing to tell others is that we truly felt welcome and at home. Very highly recommended, and hope that we weren't too much trouble! Thank you so much, Margaret, for letting us stay at your beautiful cottage.

Lovely cabin with an amazing view
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tors Cove Cabin. The cabin felt just like home, with a very well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and lots of personality both inside and out. The location was perfect for exploring the true beauty of Newfoundland and all that it has to offer. The check in process was seamless and the owners were so helpful and friendly to deal with. My 3 year old son accidentally left his favourite stuffie behind, Margaret contacted me straight away when she found it and shipped it back to us in Alberta to make for a very happy little boy. We could not have found a more idyllic or peaceful place to enjoy our holiday. We will definitely stay again if we return to Newfoundland in the future

Incredible Accommodation
We had a wonderful stay at Tors Cove Cabin, it could not have been more comfortable or welcoming, with much attention to detail, beautiful bedding and a fresh baked loaf of bread ... Thank you Margaret and Ralph for being such caring hosts it was a delight to meet you. We will be recommending your property to our friends and family. Pat and S'ine Maule, Ontario

A Perfect Newfoundland Experience
This lovely cabin is situated just a short distance from St. John's but right on the Irish Loop Highway. You couldn't be in a better location for driving the loop (a must), yet in a tranquil and secluded lakeside setting. The cabin has all the amenities you could desire and was comfortable and cozy for our group of 5 adults. We had a nice fire every evening and our coffee on the deck over-looking the lake every morning before setting off to explore. The cabin is very close to some of the nicest bays and best whale and puffin watching excursions. The hosts - Margaret and Ralph - were gracious and extremely helpful as this was our first ever trip to Newfoundland. They went out of their way to make us feel at home and give us a true Newfoundland welcome. We will come back again to stay.

Amazing!!
We were very impressed with this cottage. It was our first time to Newfoundland and didn't know quite what to expect. Our hosts Margaret and Ralph were very welcoming and provided everything we needed to get our holiday started. Communication was great also. they went above expectations to make sure we were comfortable. Thank you for sharing you Cottage for us to relax and enjoy our vacation.
