Oceanside Artists Cottage, Dunfield, Trinity Bay

Enjoy Newfoundland’s unique, authentic outport living in Dunfield, Trinity Bay. Whale-watch from the wrap around deck at sunset. Winterizes with a cozy wood stove. Enjoy 5 minute proximity to Historic Trinity. Skerwink Trail, Fox Island Trail, Robin Hood Beach, Port Rexton Brewing Company, within 15 minutes drive. Amazing vegan friendly Two Whales Cafe is a must for coffee, lunch, pastries. Please note that the water at the cottage is not drinkable. Please pick up water on your way there. This is a charming, cozy and rustic old saltbox home warmed by a wood stove. It is brightly decorated, with white washed clapboard walls & wooden floors. There have been many updates including extra and larger windows, adding to the spectacular light flow of the cottage. This is my artist getaway where I come to be inspired by the landscape, so when not outside exploring, this is the perfect place to relax, draw or paint. There is an art room here for guests use, and colouring books, markers, crayons, pencil crayons and modelling clay for children or your inner child to create with. Many antiques, but new couches and beds for maximum comfort. Will be outfitted with snowshoes for winter in 2026!! Lots of trails for your perfect winter retreat. Please do not drink the tap water. You can pick some up on your way to there - at a gas station or grocery store.
The cottage is 150 years old, rustic and not airtight. Despite keeping the cottage very clean, you may see carpenter bugs on the floor (they do not bite, get into food or bedding and are common to the area).
