My boyfriend and I have been travelling for 5 months around Canada and I can quite honestly tell you this was my favourite place to stay. The lady running it made us feel ever so welcome. We felt completley at home from the moment we arrived. She keeps menu's of the local restaurant so you know what they are serving... More

Elsie's B&B is a home away from home. The B&B is decorated with family pictures and other photos of Newfoundland taken by Elsie. She is extremely friendly and my brother and I immediately began chatting with her as if we were friends who had just dropped in for a visit. Her breakfasts are excellent, with home made Newfoundland jams (partridge... More

Serendipity means finding something unexpected, and so it was with The Serendipity B&B in Port Blandford, We were travelling from the West to the East coast of Newfoundland and needed somewhere to stop during the journey. We picked on Port Blandford as a reasonable mid-distance and then started looking for places to stay. We came upon the Serendipity by chance,... More

I guess my expectations were too high. Based on the reviews and photos on the website I was confident that we would be happy with this accommodation. Our room, No. 7, is located just off the main guest living room. Our private bathroom connects with the hall near the kitchen/dining area. You can shake hands from the closet to the... More

Clean. Comfortable. Accomodating. Elsie worked hard to make all her guests feel comfortable. She spent some time with us to educate us about the area. Excellent muffins at bedtime. Great breakfast.

My fiance and I stayed at this B&B for one night during our four nights Newfoundland trip and this is the best B&B we stayed at. Elsie is very friendly. Our room has a nice ocean view and it is quiet and spacious. Breakfast is nice and hot. The only drawback is that breakfast is served at 8am only. The... More

We needed a place to stop en route across the province and the reviews were good. We were pleasantly surprised by this place. Elsie was great and made us feel comfortable. There was 4 people in the room next to us and we could hear them pretty good, but luckily they didn't talk all night. The bathroom was clean and... More

Elsie was very friendly and was able to tell us about the Newfoundland dishes like the Jig's dinner and how to prepare it. The breakfast was great and room was comfortable.

What can we say, friendly and comfortable like Grandma's house...with food, accommodations and presentation to impress anyone. We stayed here a few times while we were building our own place in Port Blandford! Yes, we were fortunate enough to find our own piece of heaven there. Elsie is wonderful! Her family just can't do enough for you. Thanks for everything... More
