The unique part and most enjoyable part of Seal Cove B&B is the ocean and the most amazing sunsets directly across the bay. Lots of boating and fishing activity during the summer. Listening to the waves rolling on the beach from an open window or the deck has to be the best feature - (The beach consists of very small boulders that roll with the waves).
The apartment is 1020sq.ft, modern, self-contained, very clean, with all amenities and basic condiments to make a guests stay easy and enjoyable. Has a private entrance and driveway. The space is fully accessible with large doorways, no steps and grab rails on bathroom fixtures.
The 17ft X 6.5ft lower deck and large 8ft windows in the living and dining room all open to the Bay. Directors’ chairs and flame/Bluetooth lamps and a propane BBQ are in place to enjoy the deck.
The T-railway runs in front of Seal Cove B&B and follows the shoreline along the coast. The T-railway was once the old railway track crossing the island, carrying passengers on a slow train called "the Newfie Bullet". The first passenger train across the island ran in June 1898. Regular passenger service ceased in July 1969, and the last freight ran in June 1988, and has since been transformed into a beautiful walking/running/biking trail. There is pilot project allowing ATV/UTV to access the trail going west towards Holyrood. Going east - motorized vehicles are prohibited and the trail is better groomed. The driveway can accommodate 4 vehicles with trailers. Vehicles with boat/ATV trailers can be left at the Seal Cove ATV staging - boat launch area as well.
Seal Cove B&B is often used as a base to enjoy day trips to places like St. Vincent’s Beach to watch whales, scenic Brigus, Dildo, Petty Harbour, Bell Island Number 2 Mine Tour and many other day adventures. Relax in the evenings watching a sunset across the bay and plan your next adventure.
During off season the metallic epoxy floors are heated, a guest favorite and rates discounted.
