    The location info provided by Booking.com was not accurate. (Not Stephen’s fault!) Fortunately, Google Maps provided much better guidance.

    Stephen and his thoughtful dog are truly outstanding hosts. An excellent continental breakfast was cheerfully provided to accommodate our early morning departure

    A beautiful, comfortable and clean property in a location with outstanding views. The host went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, joined us for drinks at the golf club in walking distance, and served a great breakfast with interesting conversation. Of course the star of the show is Nico, the thoughtful dog who inspired the accomodation name, a friendly good boy ready to welcome all guests.

    We loved everything! We don't have a single complaint.

    The minute we arrived, we felt so welcomed. The host was very interesting and we had some fascinating conversations. The home is in a rural area and the views are extrarodinary! Stephen ( the host) was warm and inviting.The king size bed was super comfortable and the pillows, sheets and towels were of very good quality. The bathroom was modern and the kitchen, living room and outside deck were spectacular! My husband and I will return if the occasion arises. Thank you so much Stephen!

    Nico & Stephen make you feel right at home at their beautiful property with stunning views and an amazing golf course at their doorstep. Nico has excellent front of house manners and his significant human Stephen is a great host. Thank you very much for a fantastic evening with excellent company and conversations!

    Nothing. We were happy.

    My wife, dog (Ivy), and I had a great time visiting the Thoughtful Dog. Nico, the resident dog, was so sweet and loved playing with Ivy. We stayed here after taking the ferry from North Sydney. It took us about 2.5 hours to get from the ferry terminal in NL. Completely worth the stay. The property and views from the rooms are lovely. Steve is a wonderful host and made sure we had everything we needed to be comfortable. The breakfast was delicious and exactly what we needed for another day of busy driving. The beds were clean and especially comfortable. We didn't use the hot tub. Would 100% stay again. Especially as a base camp for Gros Morne.

    One of the nicest BnBs we have stayed at over many years! Our host Stephen Spencer & Nico are the most engaging hosts. Stephens's knowledge & advice for all things travel "on the Rock" is exceptional and educational. His passion for Newfoundland is admirable.

    The property was beautiful. The location direction on Google Map were completely wrong. Bookings.com needs to correct address and directions. To be wandering dark steep country roads after a long drive is unacceptable. If you can’t give guests an accurate address you need to remove this property.

    Steve was the perfect host. He made you feel relaxed and comfortable in his home as well if you were family.
