About this property

Spencer Salt-Side Cottage (Twillingate)

Summary:
This beautifully remodelled salt box-style home sits on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, overlooking Twillingate's scenic harbour. Lovingly designed, guests will feel immersed in the beauty of coastal Newfoundland from every corner of the home. Whether enjoying a bath, reading on the day bed, cooking in the kitchen, lounging on the deck, or making a fire on the beach, guests will revel in the serenity of Twillingate.

The Space:
Spencer Salt-Side Cottage sits right on the ocean's edge in the heart of Twillingate.

You'll enter the home through the great room, an open-concept living/kitchen/dining area with three large windows providing panoramic views of Twillingate's harbour.

The kitchen is fully equipped for those who wish to cook and includes a coffee/bar nook for prepping your favourite beverages. The dining area and living space are filled with a mix of traditional and vintage furnishings, perfectly suited to the surroundings.

The home has two private bedrooms with queen beds, and an open loft area on the 2nd floor with a queen bed and a twin bed.

The 1st private bedroom is on the main floor, with a lovely ocean view. Also, on the main floor, is a 3-piece bathroom with a shower. As you head upstairs, you'll be once again immersed in the beautiful landscape surrounding the home. You'll enter a loft with lots of space to lounge, including a twin bed and a queen bed, where you can comfortably soak up the relaxing vibes. Also on the 2nd floor, there is a 4-piece bathroom including a shower and a 66" soaker tup situated perfectly to enjoy the views. The second private bedroom sits just off the loft area and includes a queen bed and sitting area with views of the harbour and the surrounding hills.

Guest Access:
Spencer Salt-Side Cottage is located on Twillingate's south island, just off of Main Street. When you enter Twillingate on Route 340, you'll reach a T in the road, where you'll take a right. You'll drive for approximately 1 km, when you'll notice a small lane heading to a bright orange cottage sitting on the water's edge. If you head up a hill and pass the Gospel Church, you've gone too far. The cottage sits down from the road, so keep your eyes peeled for the bright orange. There are at least three parking spots on the property.

The Neighborhood:
The cottage is nestled on the waterfront on Twillingate's south island.

Getting Around:
Driving is the most typical way that visitors explore Twillingate and area. That said, it is a walker/hikers dream. Whether you prefer the road or the trails, there is so much to explore. Just steps from Spencer Salt-Side Cottage, you can walk beautiful beaches, enjoy your own beach fire and maybe even spot icebergs out in Twillingate Harbour.

Other Things to Note:
Spencer Salt-Side Cottage is in the Town of Twillingate, overlooking the harbour. The cottage is within walking distance of some of Twillingate's south island restaurants and attractions. All that Twillingate has to offer is only a short drive away; including the Rockcut Twillingate Trails, a local craft brewery, a winery producing wine from local berries, museums, live entertainment, coffee shops, galleries, restaurants, boat and kayak tours.
Please note only registered guests are permitted in this property, and as much we love furry friends, no pets are allowed.

10 stars if I could
Our home away from home! We, 2 couples in our 60s, planned a 10-day vacation in Newfoundland and this was our first stop, 2 nights in Twillingate at the Spencer Salt-side Cottage. We all agree that we will return to Twillingate, and more specifically at the Spencer Salt-Side Cottage. A perfectly situated cottage with a gorgeous view of the Twillingate harbour and icebergs right in front of our windows !! (end of June) We felt at home the second we stepped in this beautiful, bright and fully equipped cottage. The decor is absolutely charming. None of us wanted to leave. Thank you Marie, we loved our stay!
