We travelled off the main road on the Irish loop on our way back from Bonavista to St John's and found Witless Bay easily. The retreat is new and impeccably clean and tastefully decorated. The views from our room overlooking the ocean. The soap in the room is heavenly and the peppermint+eucalyptus scent is the first thing you notice when you open the door. It was a cold wet day, so I stayed cozy +warm by the electric fireplace. Didn't get a chance to eat at the on-site Forage restaurant , but will next time! We adored the Lodge and very highly recommend this accommodation and the province of Nfld.

Wonderful place to stay and great staff. Rooms are especially nice, very large with great ocean views.

Only downside was that the Cafe was not open - we knew this going in - and that the restaurants in the area were limited given the time of year and that we were there early in the week.
