Starboard suite @ The Homestead Oceanfront

Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway, overlooking gorgeous views of the beach and marina. The Starboard suite has two bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, as well as a laundry room. Other amenities include a living room with board games, books, and a UHD TV with thousands of movies & TV shows available to watch. Within walking distance of a grocery store and some of NL's most beautiful hiking trails. Rediscover nature at The Homestead.

The Homestead is a great location for your next vacation. With so much to see locally and via day trips to surrounding attractions, it's the perfect home base. Our suites range from 600 to over 1,000 square feet, offering much more room than typical hotels or B&Bs so you'll have plenty of space to stretch out and relax.

We're the best option for comfortable lodging in the relaxing, scenic Norman's Cove – Long Cove area. Ideally situated just one hour's drive from St. John's, Long Cove offers close proximity to some of the best hiking in Newfoundland, with three trailheads within walking distance of our property, including the acclaimed Seaview Trail. Chance Cove and Dildo are just a short drive or boat trip away. Kayakers, sailors, cyclists, fishers, nature photographers, and outdoor enthusiasts of all kinds love our location.

While other properties may offer no view or an ocean view from a distance, The Homestead is oceanfront, with a panoramic view of Long Harbour, Trinity Bay, Chapel Head, and the beach we're next to visible from most rooms. In the right season, you can spot icebergs, whales, seals, eagles and many types of seabirds, as well as capelin rolling. Walk down to the beach directly below our property to see it up close, breathe in the salty air, or look for seashells.

I was looking for a few days away, to enjoy some solitude in my favorite Canadian destination. I found exactly what I needed and wanted. Relatively close to St. John's - Norman's Cove - Long Cove is a delightful community, with friendly, welcoming people, and great ocean views.Karl's property was cozy, well equipped, and provided a fantastic base from which to take day trips to the Baccalieu Trail, Trinity, and St. John's. The property is located just a few minutes walk to two really excellent trails - Pembly Cove and Seaside. Karl was an excellent and responsive host. Check-in was easy. Each of two bedrooms had ensuite bathrooms with showers - with a never ending supply of hot water, the bed was super comfortable, and loads of spare linen, towels, blankets, etc. I really appreciated the ability to access the washer and dryer - always nice to get that done and pack clean clothes to take home.Overall, I really enjoyed my 5 nights at Karl's Starboard Suite @ The Homestead. I will hope to be back at some point in my future visits to The Rock.
