Beautiful Rustic cottage! The cottage had everything you needed and more! We felt right at home. Bob was great to deal with, even took us fishing. Petty Harbour is a beautiful little village! We fell in love with the town and the people. There was lots to do and close nearby many attractions (Cape Spear, Signal Hill) and about 10 minutes outside of St Johns. The zip line is right in Petty Harbour, it was so much fun! There’s a pub and a great restaurant there too. We highly recommended staying at Bobs Rustic cottage in Petty Harbour! We’re definitely planning to go back next year!

It was a pleasure hosting Robin at CottageHill . They were so considerate of the property, and they were great guests. I trust they had a memorable time in Newfoundland, and it would be a pleasure to see them again in the future.
