About this house rental
Welcome to the Pumpkin House, a unique and historic home with a super cozy vintage vibe. Ideal for couples and groups of up to 5. The home has 3 bedrooms, 1 & 1/2 baths and built in 1872. Lovingly restored and completely furnished with a curated collection of treasures. Inside and out, its period design and colours transport you and your senses back in time. Here a stay here is more than just a stay, it's an experience in modern day time travel paired up with our warm and authentic hospitality.
Comfort and coziness is what you can expect. HGTV called the Pumpkin House “One of the Coolest Canadian Airbnbs”; experience why for yourself! With a classic old fashioned layout, the three bedrooms are upstairs and all the living spaces are on the main floor. The living room, or as we call it “The Parlour” has comfy seating ideal for kicking back and putting your feet up. A collection of vintage books, games and movies are perfect for the rainy days.
The dining room is perfect for a marathon board game night (we supply the games) or enjoy hosting your own dinner party here with a meal you whipped up in the 50’s style kitchen. We stock the kitchen with spices and the essentials for cooking and baking…and plenty of fresh ground coffee for the French press, making for one of the best cups of coffee in town.
Outside, the wrap around patio allows you to chase (or hide from) the sunshine all day long. With classic wooden benches and ample seating. It’s perfect for bird watching or just relaxing and letting the worries of the world melt away. Depending on the weather, you’ll catch some of the most beautiful sunsets that take to the skies and have given Twillingate a reputation for its incredible sunsets.
The Pumpkin House sits beside an active working fishing harbour and colourful boat yard. Alive with Newfoundland’s fishing heritage. Watch the boats come and go with the tides, while the fishermen land their catch of cod. It is an authentic glimpse of the life and culture that has shaped our island for centuries.
For our guests taller than 6 feet, just a heads up the lowest ceiling heights are 6'7". As the Pumpkin House was built long before the days of our modern day building codes, it still retains its original 19th century architecture. Therefore it may not be suitable for all and all accessibility needs.
To fully experience the magic of Twillingate combined with the experience of the Pumpkin House itself, we (and our guest reviews) highly recommend planning a minimum stay of three nights.
