3 Bedroom House in Terra Nova, Champneys West

Welcome to the Tickle Inn! This beautiful 200 year old salt box is located Oceanside in the hamlet of Champney’s West in beautiful Trinity Bay, where you can still find real adventure and total escape. Newly renovated to look how the home would have, crooked floors and all, but with all the conveniences of today.
Offering 1550 square feet of comfort, our three bedroom family cottage is beautifully decorated and includes a fully equipped kitchen, open concept living/dining area with decorative old fashioned wood burning cook stove, ensuite washer/dryer and 2 full bathrooms. The master bedroom has queen size bed, queen size bed in the second bedroom, and a twin over double bunk in the third bedroom. All bedrooms curated with local pieces which give the home a truly “Newfoundland” feel combined with spacious living room and dining room make this the perfect size cottage for a large family or group of seven. The bedroom quilts were made for me personally by my wonderful extremely talented Aunt Margaret!
Located within steps of the wharf, aquarium, playground, and hall. There’s a local craft shop and also on the Fox Island Trail. A few minutes drive to Port Rexton Brewery, as well as legendary Skerwink Trail.

Summary: We had a fantastic stay in Champneys West at Christina's home. It's a great place to use for a central point for your visit to Trinity, Trinity East, Port Rexton, Elliston, and Bonavista. Cozy and well equipped, this home away from home was delightful. Christina is a great and responsive host, who was easy to communicate with, and provided an amazingly quick response to each inquiry both prior to, and during our stay. Comfy beds, excellent BBQ, outstanding kitchen, and the bonus of 2 full bathrooms. We can't say enough about this great spot, We hope to return on a future trip to Newfoundland.

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It is a very rustic cottage across the road from the waterfront of an inlet. The place is absolutely loaded with charm and great contrasts of modern (the shower stall tiles come to mind) and old (wood slats walls, crooked floors). It was amongst the cleanest VRBOs we have staid at (thank you!). One should know that soundproofing is minimal and the floors are very creaky, but the bedding was very comfortable. No laundry detergent was provided and there was not enough coffee pods for the duration of our stay, but we made do. I didn't reach out to the owner but the stove appears to be defective (turns off on its own after being on for just a few minutes). The stovetop and the BBQ worked perfectly. We'd happily stay there again!

Summary: We traveled to Christina's vacation home with a toddler (23 mo) two parents and two grandparents. It was very well appointed and met all our needs and expectations. Christina was quick to respond and very helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Summary: Great stay in this rustic fisherman’s cottage located right on the bay in champneys west. Convenient to trinity and bonavista. Would have loved to have stayed for more than 4 nights, but the remainder of the island was calling! Simply charming.

Summary: Property was very unique in location, appearance, decor and view of surrounding area, while having all the modern conveniences. Centrally located for exploring the Bonavista area. We loved our stay there, especially hearing the Trinity lighthouse fog horn located about 4 km away on foggy nights.

Summary: Despite the wetter-than-average weather, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We've always loved hiking the Fox Island trail, and it was wonderful being able to do it right from our doorstep! The property was charming and on the few nice days we had during our one week stay, took advantage of the deck. Looking forward to returning!
