About the host
Hosted by Kent Aitken
My wife and I love travel, home projects, live music, and spending time with family and friends. We’ve lived in a few very different places over the years, including Newfoundland and the Middle East, and those experiences shaped how we think about hospitality. We enjoy creating spaces that feel relaxed, welcoming, and full of character.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the area because it captures so much of what we love about Newfoundland — the ocean views, fresh air, slower pace, and welcoming people. There’s a peacefulness here that’s hard to explain until you experience it for yourself.
What makes this property unique
What makes Millie’s unique is the combination of history, character, and comfort. This beautifully restored 100-year-old cottage still features its original hardwood floors, mouldings, high ceilings, and vintage charm, while offering modern amenities and thoughtful updates throughout. Guests can relax on the covered veranda overlooking the Bay of Exploits, enjoy the peaceful gardens and fruit trees, and walk to downtown Botwood, the murals, and historic sites within minutes. Most of all, the home has a genuine warmth and story behind it that guests seem to truly connect with.
