A sister house to the Station House,(also listed with Vacation
Rentals), the Trail House was completed July of 2007 and
features two queen bedrooms and all the ammenities of home. The
Trail House is located in Trinity East, a quaint and
beautiful out-port of Newfoundland. To the left of this newly
restored cottage commences the acclaimed Skerwink Trail, rated by
Travel + Leisure 2003, as one of the top 35 hiking trails in North
America and Europe. To the right, the level ocean-side rail-bed
winds through the outport, past active fishing wharfs and around the
harbour.
One of the greatest things about many of the houses in this area has
to be their location. Certainly this is true of the Trail House.
It is ideally situated at the very entrance to the world-class
Skerwink hiking trail. And, as they say here, "A hike to Skerwink
can change your life."
The Trail House is also just steps away from the wharfs,
(which are the heart of the outport) an assortment of Bay Houses,
the harbour, and the ocean beyond. It is a tranquil, restful spot,
complete with the sound of the put-put of the single-stroke engine
of the trap-skiff heading out the harbour; or the haunting sound of
the lighthouse horn drifting on the soft night air.
The Trail House provides the setting for the sights and
sounds of the area to wash over you while you soak in the comforts
and aesthetics of rural Newfoundland. You become one with your
environment and content in the moment. This is where creativity
begins.
The Trail House is meticulously re-stored, fully-equipped and
furnished, ready to become your home-away-from home. It accommodates
up to 4 people.
A Newfoundland Vacation Home,the Trail House offers a
unique, authentic experience for travelers and vacationers. It
allows guests to prepare their own meals, entertain guests or just
enjoy the luxury of an entire house to themselves during their
travels. This home represents tremendous value for visitors since
significant savings can be realized through the preparation of some
meals and the relatively low per-person per-night costs. It truly
provides a comfortable home-base from which to explore the area.
