Attention to detail was amazing. Ample coffee, tea, sugar etc. Amazingly outfitted home lacking nothing. We were greeted by Kelly who was always available if we had a question… A brilliant place, clean and well laid out … Highly recommend it as a place to stay… Five Stars

A lovely little cottage in a great location with perfect views from the back porch. Easy walking distance to the East Coast trail.

If you want a nice house on a nice property in a nice town and a friendly responsive owner, this is a the house for you. The views in every direction are breathtaking. Pouch Cove is a very walkable small town with friendly people. The house is very well equipped including extra jackets and Bose bluetooth speakers that I paired with my phone daily. A shout out to Sharon who did a fantastic job of cleaning the house before our arrival. My only regret is that our stay wasn't longer.

Beautiful property, amazing views and great location. Cottage was perfectly stocked, very clean and beds were very comfortable. Chris and Kelly, the hosts were very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend!

beautifully spot, peaceful, relaxing, never ending view hiking trail steps from the back door, close to st john's and highways to other beautiful places to explore

Thank you Chris and Kelly. The Red House was perfect!! We enjoyed our evenings by the fire and watching the whales and icebergs from the deck. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen so we could spend several evenings cooking dinner and relaxing after beautiful hikes that we walked to from the house. Grateful for all of your recommendations and hospitality!!

It was a spectacular view of the ocean. We managed to see many whales, and iceberg from far away. The property itself was very comfortable and very cozy. Kelly who welcomed us was amazing and easy to reach. Overall, we had a great vacation and looking forward to coming back.

We enjoyed our stay at the red house. The views were fantastic (when the fog cleared), the house was cozy and well equipped, beds were super comfortable, the only thing we didn't have was lobster crackers! Pouch Cove is pretty much the last stop heading north on the Avalon Peninsula, so it's pretty quiet, exactly what we were looking for in a relaxing vacation. Thanks to Chris and Kelly for a great stay.

- perfect location relative to St. John’s - perfect location for view of the ocean and rocks - perfect location to be the first to see the sunrise - perfect hosts - perfect - perfect - perfect

The Red House was really a home away from home. We loved every minute there. The house had everything we could have wished for. We had a little hurricane for 2 days and were just watching the weather and the sea from a very comfortable living room. We can highly recommend a stay there and will come back for sure.

Nothing quite prepares you for the stunning views of the ocean! Everything about this vacation property was perfect for our family. It is located far enough away from everything else to provide a great getaway but, it is close enough to Pouch Cove and a short drive to St John’s. Bonus, the East Coast trail is within walking distance and definitely recommend for the views! The owners Kate and Chris are fantastic people and communicators! They were always quick to respond to any questions we had and let us in on where to pick wild blueberries. With respect to the Red House…well, what can I say? Spectacular views and although old is modernized, clean and everything works! Throughly enjoyed our stay and was regretfully too short! Would definitely recommend to anyone!

Completely happy with The Red House. Everything was so clean, all our needs were thought out, such as blankets available to use while relaxing on the deck. The ocean view is beautiful. And picking blueberries while hiking the East Coast Trail, everything was perfect. We will be back!!

This is such a sweet house! It's beautiful, very clean, and even the knives are sharp!! Everything about it is lovely. We had a nightmare travel story (Toronto airport, enough said.) But the house and our vacation experience made it worth the stress of getting to Newfoundland and getting back home to Michigan. I truly hope to reserve this spot again and check out more of the East Coast Trail, which is within walking distance and truly phenomenal. Well done!!

We absolutely loved our stay at the red house. The location was perfect for a peaceful getaway and close enough to St Johns for the Newfoundland experience. We mostly focused on hiking and the East Coast trail can’t be beat ! It was so nice to come back to the red house after a day of hiking. Waking up to an amazing sunrise with coffee to relaxing on the deck with a glass if wine.. heaven on earth. Chris and Kelley are amazing hosts and answered all of our questions and even had great suggestions for the area. We will definitely plan a return trip

If you want an incredibly comfortable stay in some beautiful Newfoundland surroundings -- this is the place. Red House has everything you need for your stay and is located in a perfect spot. St. Johns and great places on the Avalon peninsula are all close by. But the best part is just sitting on the deck and looking out at the awesome view. Whales, seabirds, cliffs and awesome sunrises and sunsets. Just taking it all in from the deck. Fantastic place!

The Red House is fully and very comfortably furnished. It is perfect for nesting on a stormy day, for basking in sunshine on the deck or for launching a day of hiking surrounded by truly breathtaking views from every window. There was a stash of paperbacks and a pile of videos for our entertainment. There were treats on our arrival. Hosts Chris and Kelly were very attentive. Chris answered email questions promptly. Kelly visited on our first full day to make sure we had everything we needed. Pouch Cove is close enough to St John's for shopping, dining out or visiting The Rooms, but also a great starting point for hikes and drives north and west. We highly recommend staying at The Red House.

We had a wonderful stay at the Red House and did not want to leave. From the easy emailing with Chris, to the delightful welcome and subsequent visit from Kelly, the feeling of being at home in the house itself and then the incredible views, the stay at the Red House exceeded our expectations. Thinking back on our week there, the words that come to mind are that the setting is idyllic and the place leaves you feeling serene. It was perfect for relaxing on the deck watching the sunrise and looking out at the ocean, and for disconnecting from the world, and reconnecting with each other. We were hoping for a relaxing, quiet and peaceful week and staying at the Red House with the incredible surroundings gave us that and much more. We left with a close personal connection to the place. The house itself was very clean and fully equipped with pretty much anything one could need. Having freshly picked wild blueberries with breakfast every morning was a real delight. The property is located an easy drive into St. John’s and other locales and touristy places like Petty Harbour , Quidii Vidi , Signal Hill and so on. The Red House was the perfect vacation spot and we will definitely be returning there in the future. Thank you Chris for making that incredible place available for us to enjoy.

We had a wonderful two weeks here and would love to return. The house itself is delightful: immaculate, generously and thoughtfully equipped, aesthetically simple and pleasing, and with a breathtaking view over the sea. We enjoyed day trips to Brigus, Witless Bay (don’t miss the boat trip to see puffin colony) , Petty Cove, and in and around St. John’s (The Rooms also not to be missed). But, in a way, the highlight each time was returning to Pouch Cove and sitting outside on the deck …wine, gannets diving, sea breeze …same again at sunrise, with coffee. There’s good walking nearby and we lucked into blueberry season too, along the cliffs close to the house. Chris was always responsive on email around booking etc and Kelly’s welcome when we arrived was great. Thanks to you both.

First off, The Red House is "one in a million" - even in NL. Location, Location, Location!! Spotlessly clean, well equipped, tasteful and creative decor and breathtaking views from every angle. I took photos every morning of the spectacular sunrises and in the evening we sat in the comfy adirondack chairs to watch for whale activity out on the ocean . Our stay came with a perfect week of weather. From the puffins at Elliston to the bottom of the Irish Loop we had excursions every day to see and taste what this unique Province has to offer. Our hosts ensured our every comfort and our stay at the Red House was a highlight of our vacation. We have to give it a TEN! L Delmas, Ottawa

A perfect vacation getaway with a true Newfoundland feel to it. Spectacular ocean views...eqipped with everything one could need. One of our favourite vacation homes ever!

The Red House is in a fantastic location and has easy access to the East Coast Trail. Downtown St John’ is approx. 30 minutes away and we enjoyed a fantastic meal at a restaurant called Get Stuffed. We were fortunate enough to be there for the Regatta and that was an experience not to be missed. The house has everything you will need for your stay and it is beautifully decorated. We especially enjoyed using the deck and watching for whales and enjoying the ocean view.

My wife & I spent 2 wonderful weeks at the Red House. A beautiful, quiet spot at the end of the road overlooking the sea. The cottage was just as advertised. Kelly greeted us upon our arrival to make sure we were comfortably settled in. The owner (Chris) was very responsive to any questions we had. We spent most of our days hiking on the East Coast Trail (2 segments walking distance from the cottage and many more within a short drive). We also took the ferry to Bell Island & explored downtown St. John's. We enjoyed returning to this lovely cottage after the day's adventures. While relaxing on the deck we saw MANY whales everyday. Although this is a "simple" cottage, it is nicely furnished and is adorned with local photography and artwork. The library containing a variety of books about Newfoundland was also a nice touch. We had everything we needed to prepare & enjoy dinner each night. The cottage was very clean, and the beds were quite comfortable. While Pouch Cove is a very quiet small town at the "end of the earth", St. John's is only 25 minutes away for groceries, restaurants, etc. We highly recommend the Red House & we hope to return again.

Could not have been better - location, venue, view, fabulous home, decor, artwork, amenities. Stay here & enjoy Newfoundland!

What an awesome place. The house was perfect in every way. Clean, well equipped, very cozy, comfortable, and stunning views of the icebergs and ocean. This is a definite must to return to. Wished I lived there.

Great location for some peace and quiet with superb hiking right outside your door. The house is clean, cozy and very well supplied with everything you might need for a lovely holiday.

We had a great visit. House was perfect. Really enjoyed the hiking trails right outside the front door. People in town very friendly and helpful.

This is our fourth or fifth stay at the Red House. The view is second to none. The house is cozy and the wood stove keeps you warm and snug on a rainy night. The East Coast Trail runs straight through town and is stunning in both directions. The washer and dryer are a great help. I'd give it six stars, if I could!

Wonderful property and location.

Spectacular view. We saw whales everyday right out the front window. Very good location for day trips to St John’s, Bay Bulls, Belle Island and many photo op spots all within an hours drive. Make sure you go see Cape St Francis, just three km from the Red House

The cottage had everything we needed. The views are incredible. We saw whales from the back deck every day. Some mornings they were so close we could hear them breathing as they surfaced. The area is very quiet and relaxing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning to Newfoundland.

Great experience at 'the edge'. The cottage was everything advertised and had the perfect view of the Atlantic. 2nd time we have been here, hoping for a 3pete one day! D & H
