I am a born and bred Newfoundlander. I was born on the west coast, lived in Labrador for many years and even longer in St. John's. I have always dreamed of owning a property on the Battery....one of the truly spectacular, unique areas in the world. This cottage will allow me to share this special place with old and new friends. So if you want to visit home, take that dream trip, explore an amazing place, Battery Bluff Cottage is for you.
Rochelle Spracklin purchased this cottage in 2015
Outport Living in the City. Walk everywhere, sit on the deck and watch the boats come and go, walk the East Coast Trail from your doorstep, walk to downtown, eat, shop, tour and be merry.
Perfect location, right on the Signal Hill trail with a beautiful view of the harbour! The description and pictures were bang on!!! The parking spot beside the cottage was very convenient. We were within walking distance to downtown (approx. 20 minutes), close to a grocery store (approx. 30 minutes), and very close to the Signal Hill trail (30 seconds). We enjoyed the comings and goings of the harbour while sitting on the balcony enjoying our morning cup of coffee.
The cottage was clean and well equipped! We were two couples travelling together and were very comfortable. The washer and dryer worked very well, and the detergent was provided too!
When we first arrived, we realized we would like a second key. We called the property manager our first evening, and they provided us with an extra key the next day! We also had to have a light fixed in the kitchen, and once again next day service! We were very impressed and pleased. I would highly recommend this property!
We enjoyed a very cute Café, just a 2 minute walk from the cottage. A nice place to grab a coffee or a snack. The jellybean houses were only a 10 to 15 minute walk.
We could go on and on as there is so much to say and it is a really beautiful spot. Thank you Rochelle for sharing your home with us!
Great location, the Harbour view was awesome, great viewing of harbour activity, well equipped and very comfortable. Great restaurants close by, lovely ambiance, would highly recommend this rental.
The Battery is the best area to stay in St. John's. You are on the loop of the Signal Hill hike, an absolute must do. You also can walk easily anywhere downtown. The view of the harbour is beautiful and the activity of the ships makes for great entertainment. As for Rochelle's place, it's absolutely perfect. She has thought of all of the details and maintains it in top notch condition. You will not be disappointed!
View is amazing!
Accommodations were clean & comfortable
Fabulous cottage--so clean and conveniently located. Enjoyed the cottage deck and all the harbour views. Loved being so central....close to the signal hilll hike, shopping and downtown. Perfect place for our family vacation. Thank you
Great location, clean and comfortable. Washer/dryer with soap was appreciated. Walking distance to everything. If you turn left on Battery Rd., you head to the city, turn right and you head to the trail that eventually leads up to Signal Hill and continues on to Quidi Vidi Village. 15 minutes from the airport. Enjoyed watching the freighters in the port right from our very own balcony.
We enjoyed hiking to Signal Hill where we saw plenty of whales and an iceberg. Quidi Vidi Brewery is not a pub but has beer tastings which was very informative not only about the beer, but fun Newfoundland facts. Really enjoyed YellowBelly Brewery on Water St. with great food and beer. Would highly recommend Cap'n Wayne's out of Bay Bulls about 25 mins. away for a boat tour seeing puffins, whales, birds, etc. The boat only holds 8 customers so it felt very personal and he's full of great information.
