Ocean Front Cottage, Built Into the Cliffside, Overlooking St. John's Harbour

Unfortunately we heard nothing from the host to check how we were doing. In saying that, we loved the location, the cottage was perfect for us and everything we required was there.

The Anchor Cottage at 8 Top Battery Road surpassed our expectations which were high to start. The cottage is nestled in a wonderful traditional neighbourhood, perched on the cliff looking out over St John’s harbour. The facility was clean updated and located close to both downtown and the scenic hike to Signal Hill. The deck view was simply spectacular. I highly recommend this cottage for anyone looking for either an active holiday exploring St.John’s and environs, for for a relaxing restful break. It’s terrific.

This property was super clean and what a great location. Walking distance to signal hill and downtown St. John’s made sightseeing easy! The view of the harbour and downtown was beautiful. Watching the ships come and go from the deck with my morning coffee, and then later on enjoying the lights of downtown…beautiful! The appliances looked near new, and the cookware was good quality. The host was very accommodating and super easy to get ahold of. We would love to stay here again!

Very nice and comfortable apartment. Good location with a very cool balcony with the view of the Harbour. Loved watching the ships going in and out of it. The only negative thing was that the WiFi was unsecured. The cellular network worked fine. Still giving five stars.

Very good. Really enjoyed watching the harbour activities.

The property is as listed. It's a great space located in a wonderful location that is walking distance to downtown and signal hill. We enjoyed the view. It has all the amenities we needed. The owner was quick to resolve a check in issue where I didn't receive the entry information when I called them. Would absolutely book again.

My friend and I had a wonderful week staying here in mid-May. The weather was chilly (it even snowed) but the heating worked well. I've stayed in many rental properties over the years, but never one as well equipped and nicely furnished as this. It's in the best part of town, and the parking space is a luxury.The entryway was a little bit awkward for someone with balance issues - a step up, and a step down to get in - but that was the only possible criticism.I would heartily recommend this home.

Cottage/Villa was terrific. Perfect location, few minutes walk to Signal Hill and downtown. Very clean. Stocked with the necessities and more. Including coffee, tea, sugar, salt, pepper and some spices. Had everything we needed to make meals in the villa. Definitely would recommend.

Great place and location. Will certainly come back

Great clean cottage with wonderful deck to take in the beautiful views of St. Johns Harbour.

Excellent harbour view. Everything you would need. Great response from owner and property manager.

Great view and great location. Well-equipped kitchen. Comfortable beds. Just a super place to stay! Would definitely stay again if we are in the area!

Just came back from 8 days in St John's. The Anchor cottage was just great. The location is super. It was nice to set out on the balcony and watch the ships come in and out and just enjoy the harbor. The walk downtown was easy, even though the way back has so up hill parts. There is a nice trail up to Signal Hill right by the house. Everything you need is provided. We did some nice day trips so the location is good for that. Enjoy your stay, Rochelle was quick to answer any questions we had.
