Our cozy, clean, duplex style, country home, is located Pouch Cove, Newfoundland, a small town with its roots in the fishing and farming industries. Our vacation home is surrounded by an abundance of natural landscapes and has amazing ocean views. In the summer, when the trees are in full bloom, the ocean view is compromised but there are view points both within the house and outside the property. Myself and my husband, a middle-aged couple, live in the second side of the duplex and, although respectful of privacy, are available when requested and do our utmost to ensure our guest’s holiday experience is filled with positive memories. Visitors to our area are impressed by the lack of industrial noise and the pleasing fresh country air, beautiful views, and friendly residents. Also, because Pouch Cove is located just 20 minutes from the city, we are perfectly situated for guests to experience Newfoundland’s unique urban and rural cultures. Our vacation home offers in-lane, parking immediately adjacent to the private front entrance. There are no other homes within direct contact to the home. Mature trees form boundaries along the distant perimeter of the property and flowering plants on the side border add distinction and color during the summer season. Just beyond the side border of property is a tall hill from which one can see amazing views of the horizon, ocean, shoreline, and a large portion of Pouch Cove. Our vacation home has a huge, enclosed, 3 section, patio with an amazing ocean view. In the summer season, the patio is outfitted with a 4 burner, family sized, propane BBQ and an assortment of patio furniture. The house’s interior is cozy and captures the feeling of outport living. Murray House Vacation Home features 2 bedrooms (one with a queen bed; the other a double). We are pet friendly for small, non-destructive, pets. Furnishings inside the house include a portable air conditioner, washer, dryer, fridge, stove, microwave, countertop dishwasher, 4 slice toaster, Keurig and drip coffee machines, pots, pans, slow cooker, dinnerware, utensils, bar height table with 4 chairs, 2 full sized reclining sofas, an end table with accent lighting, 55-inch flat screen TV on an electric fireplace, and, in each of the two bedrooms, a double bed, 48-inch TV on electric fireplace base, and a computer table with 2 chairs. We have a whirlpool tub / shower. Cleaners, detergents, linen, shampoo, 4 rolls of toilet tissue, and 2 rolls of paper towels are included at no extra charge. We subscribe to high speed wi-fi internet and a large assortment of cable television networks including many movie networks and Netflix. For day trips and sight-seeing opportunities, there are two rugged hiking trails, part of the East Coast Trail, about 5 minutes in either direction from our home. Be sure to keep a watch for icebergs, whales, and ships, and other ocean attractions which, in season, are commonly seen in our coastal waters. Birdwatching enthusiasts will appreciate the many species of songbirds and ocean birds that make Pouch Cove their home. The migratory pattern of birds welcomes different species during different seasons of the year. Be sure to keep a well charged camera to capture the essence of your amazing, well-deserved, vacation. Breathe in fresh air and breathe out stress. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Alarm clock - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Jetted bathtub - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - One pet total (up to 20 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Designated smoking areas ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - In the city center - In the mountains - Near the bay - Near the ocean ### Things to do - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 900 square feet ## Similar properties ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/119000000/118950000/118941500/118941444/d181e833.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Le Petit Pouch Cove, cute 3 Bed house with ocean views, 15 mins from St John's!
