The home is a trip into yesteryear. The decor fits the theme of early 1900's. Mary, our hostess was very accomodating. Her breakfasts we not only delicious, but filling (we did not eat lunch during our 4 day stay). Robert, the owner, took the time to have several lengthy chats about the mansion, its history (including several Royal visits) as well as stories of St. John and NFLD.
Only draw back was getting our luggage up to the 2nd floor.
As they say, location, location, location. We we able to walk everywhere except for Signal Hill and Quidi Vidi, which were both less than 10 minutes drive. A very memorable finish to our 15 days in NFLD.
