Newfoundland Travel - Places to Stay: Murray House Vacation Home
If you're travelling to eastern Newfoundland and need accommodation, I recommend you check out my vacation home, Murray House Vacation Home. Only 20 minutes from the city, it allows guests to live like an Islander, to experience Newfoundland in its fullest, and to make treasured memories to last a lifetime. #newfoundlandtravel #newfoundlandvacation #canadatravel #travel #airbnb #airbnbcanada #newfoundlandairbnb #placestostay


The house is constructed as a duplex. My husband and I live in the second home and respect the privacy of our guests. We are friendly, mature, and considerate of others. There are no neighboring homes. #cozyhome #awayfromitall #pouchcove #newfoundland

One of the many appealing features of our vacation home is its wrap around patio with views of the coast, ocean, and garden. Guests have access to a patio swing, a bistro set, and an outdoor barbecue on the back patio. There is fencing separating the two homes. #outdoor #family #barbecue

Birding enthusiasts will enjoy diversity of song birds that visit our well-established feeders daily. Because the feeders are in direct physical view of the house, they are clearly visible. Seabirds, and sometimes raptors, can be seen along the coast. #birding #birdwatching #nature #wildlife #bird

In season, and if they arrive, you can enjoy watching icebergs in the harbour while sitting on the patio. #iceberg

For the early-riser, we have a perfect view to appreciate the aesthetic beauty of the sun as it rises above the horizon and spreads over the coast. #sunrise #coast #ocean

Moving inside the house, you will be treated to a fully functional and well stocked home. Among the kitchen's amenities are a full size fridge and stove, a microwave, an air fryer, a 4 slice toaster, a coffee perk, a Keurig coffee machine, a kettle and teapot, a slow cooker, and a countertop dishwasher. In addition to cookware and dinnerware, we supply cooking and cleaning utensils, cleaners, detergents, and paper products. A fire extinguisher and smoke detector are located in the kitchen. #vacationhome #holidayhome #airbnb #newfoundlandairbnb #airbnbcanada #travel #newfoundland

The dining area has a bar height dining table and seating for four. There are two bar height stools available to allow seating for up to six. A water dispenser is provided. Beside the kitchen table is a library filled with novels, children's books, and books featuring Newfoundland. An ugly stick and mummer display add to the cultural feel of the home. #newfoundland #newfoundlandculture #newfoundlandfolklore #mummer #uglystick

The living room offers comfortable seating with two full sized reclining couches, a 55 inch flat screen television, and an electric fireplace. We subscribe to cable television and offer a wide selection of television channels (including many movie networks and Netflix). High speed wi-fi internet is provided, the code for which can be found in the house guide. There is also an X-Box 360 with a limited number of games.

Patio doors at the far end of the living room open onto the back deck. There are stairs leading to the second floor where you will find the bathroom and two bedrooms. The house, unfortunately, is not wheelchair accessible.

Each of the two bedrooms has four pillows. There is extra bed linen stored in the linen closet beside the bathroom. Both bedrooms have sloped ceilings, common features found in rural homes in years past, which add to the cultural ambience of the home. The bedroom window looks onto the side garden and coast. #rural #newfoundland #airbnb #newfoundlandairbnb



Murray House Vacation Home has a whirlpool tub. We provide many toiletries including toilet paper, hand wash, shampoos, detergents, and body wash. A hair dryer is also available.


The second bedroom has two windows which overlook the ocean, garden, and coast.
