Ideal for couples and groups of upto 5. The home has 3 bedrooms and 1 & 1/2 bathrooms. Built in 1872, we've lovingly restored and outfitted the home with a curated collection of antiques. 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 warm and authentic hospitality. HGTV called the Pumpkin House “One of the Coolest Canadian Airbnbs”, come and experience why for yourselves. With a classic layout, all bedrooms are located upstairs and the living spaces are on the main floor. The living room has comfy seating ideal for 4 guests. Put your feet up, check out some of the vintage books, parlour games or simply stream some of your faves on the smart tv. The Victorian dining room is perfect for a games night marathon (we supply the board games) or enjoying a supper whipped up in the farmhouse style kitchen. We stock our kitchen with the basics and essentials for cooking and baking and of course fresh ground coffee for the French press, making for a great cup of coffee. Outside, the wrap-around patio allows you to chase the sunshine all day long. With wooden benches and ample seating it's perfect for bird watching or just kicking back and letting the worries of the world melt away. Be sure to catch some of the most beautiful sunsets that take to the skies and have given Twillingate a reputation for incredible sunsets. 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. ## Property amenities ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Books - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - Near the bay - Near the marina ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking nearby - Hunting nearby - Ice skating nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Rafting nearby - Sailing nearby - Snowmobiling nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ## Similar properties ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/94000000/93840000/93834300/93834244/fe5d2551.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Oceanview Cottage Sum Twillingate - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 37 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-24&endDate=2025-11-25&selected=93834244&PinnedHotelID=93834244&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/113000000/112330000/112327100/112327030/w1200h1197x0y3-edc8848d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Seaside Serendipity Cottage Merritt's Harbour - Sea view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 6 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-24&endDate=2025-11-25&selected=112327030&PinnedHotelID=112327030&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace, books](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109550000/109549600/109549590/88a97d0b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Above The Tickle Twillingate Vacation Home.
