About this house rental

The Big Red House is perfect for everything from a romantic weekend get-away, or an extended family visit to a long term stay over several weeks. Just ask and we will do our best to accommodate your travel needs.

This modern rendering of a traditional Newfoundland Salt Box House sits on over an acre of property with amazing ocean views!

You can hike the East Coast trail out the front door and watch whales, icebergs and migratory seabirds (in season) from almost every window. Enjoy the private yard with spacious deck & hammock, or relax in the open concept living area with 11' ceilings and exposed fir beams.

The house is located in historic Torbay, with easy access to downtown St. John's and the airport and only minutes to popular Middle Cove Beach where you can watch the capelin roll and enjoy an evening campfire.

This one of a kind property is the perfect location to experience the rich culture of Newfoundland and for the outdoor enthusiast to discover the Avalon Peninsula's many offerings. For those wanting to continue exploring Newfoundland, this house is about a 2.5 hour drive to Terra Nova National Park and a little over 3 hours to Gander.

The house has 4 bedrooms. The master has a king bed and ensuite, second and third bedrooms have double beds, fourth bedroom has single beds.

Longer term rentals are available during off-peak times. Please contact us for details.

We had such a wonderful stay!! Plenty of space to relax and play. Great facilities and well stocked with day-to-day needs. We had everything we needed -- turnkey ready. Location is fantastic -- oh, the views! Great privacy and so close to so many amenities. A superb 'base-camp' for local and farther afield excursions. Only about 15min. drive to downtown St. John's! We highly recommend the Big Red House nestled in historic and scenic Torbay!

The house had ample space for all 8 of our extended family. Communication with the host was fantastic. The double beds in 2 rooms are against the wall on one side due to built-in storage, and would best be used by one person. 3 of the twin beds are loft beds which are very high and great for young kids or teens. It was very hot up there, put the fan on and close the blinds early.

This home was perfect for our multi family trip to Newfoundland. We had 4 kids (age range from 1-9) and 4 adults and this was truly a once in a lifetime vacation! There were toys for the kids to play with, secret hideouts they loved to explore, and even a soccer field in the backyard! The kids also loved looking for the bunny that visited the backyard each morning. It was about a 15 min drive to St John’s to visit family and go to the regatta and a 5 min walk to the east coast trail. We also loved the nearby Post Taphouse and taking a dip in the ocean at Middle Cove beach. Above all, the best part of the trip was being able to wake up with the sunrise each morning with the most beautiful views of the coast! Brie and the team were great and we would love to return again one day!

My family stayed here for nearly two weeks. 2 adults and 5 kids ranging from 4-15. Everyone loved this house. It had everything we needed to feel right at home and is in the most beautiful location! Close to all the things you’d want - downtown St. John’s, hikes, and other day trips. We hope to be back next year!

We spent a week at the Big Red House (BRH) and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Brie and the BRH team were very helpful and responsive with lots of proactive communications. The location was fantastic. Easy access to downtown St. John’s (~15 minute drive) and proximity to many of the East Coast Trails - with two sections within easy walking distance. The House itself was amazing. The large treed lot provides complete privacy and the views from the second floor are awe inspiring. We found the house was inviting and comfortable with all the amenities and equipment one would need for an enjoyable stay. We loved our stay and will be back at some point soon… Newfoundland is just too beautiful and the people are soooo friendly.
