at Dog Cove

Port Rexton  ·  Newfoundland & Labrador  ·  Canada

Welcome

We're so glad
you're here.

Perched above the shimmering waters of Dog Cove, The Loft is a private, beautifully designed studio retreat — just for you. Whether you've come for the sea air, the stillness, or simply to do nothing at all, we're so glad you chose to spend your time here.

The Loft is a self-contained sanctuary with ocean views that'll stop you in your tracks — the kind of place you'll want to return to long after you've left. We've thought through every detail with your comfort in mind, from the East Coast Glow soaps to the balcony where the Atlantic stretches endlessly before you.

Your stay is fully self-guided — no waiting, no fuss. Everything you need is right here in this guidebook. And if you ever need a hand, we're just a message away.

A gentle note The sauna and hot tub on the property are lovingly reserved for guests staying in the Main House. We hope you'll find your own slice of magic right here in The Loft — with that balcony and those ocean views, we have a feeling you won't be short of ways to unwind.

The Neighbourhood

Explore Port Rexton & Beyond.

You're in one of the most spectacular corners of Newfoundland — dramatic coastline, historic villages, and the kind of quiet that's very hard to find. Here's a little guide to help you make the most of it.

🥾
Hiking
Skerwink Trail
One of the most celebrated coastal hikes in the province — a 5.3 km loop with towering headlands, sea stacks, and sweeping views across Trinity Bay that you simply won't forget. The trailhead is just minutes away.
~5 min · Port Rexton, NL
🍺
Local Favourite
Port Rexton Brewing Co.
A beloved craft brewery right on your doorstep. Settle in for a pint (or two) and stay for the views — there's nowhere better to wind down after a day on the trail.
~5 min · Port Rexton, NL
🏘️
Heritage Village
Trinity
A short drive brings you to one of the most charming historic villages in Canada — colourful clapboard houses, the Rising Tide Theatre, stunning harbour views, and some of the best photography spots on the Peninsula.
~15 min · Trinity, NL
🌊
Wildlife & Ocean
Whale & Iceberg Watching
Spring and summer bring humpback whales and towering icebergs right to these waters. Keep an eye out from the balcony, or hop on a local boat tour for a closer look — an unforgettable Newfoundland experience.

🏛️
National Historic Site
Cape Bonavista Lighthouse
A stunning restored lighthouse at the very tip of the peninsula — considered by many to be where John Cabot first made landfall in 1497. The coastal drive alone is worth every minute.
