Book your stay today ⬇️ The Livyer
Livyer means "Live Here".
A permanent settler of coastal Newfoundland as opposed to migratory fisherman from England. These are our ancestors who created the cold storage root cellar system across Newfoundland Island. These useful buildings will protect us again in the future. We dedicate this building, which is built on historical architecture, to our earliest ancestors who decided to stay on this beautiful island of Newfoundland. Compared with the Newfoundland Island's summer population, the livyers were small in number throughout the 1600s, fewer than 1 in 6 summer residents remaining year-round. This expanded in the 18th century when approximately 90% of the summer population of Newfoundland Island remained throughout the winter. The Owners,
Terry and Debbie Adey

Some crew members stayed with us while filming some scenes! Looking forward to the release!
Morning! NL tourism has apparently changed strategies. Forget the icebergs, whales and scenery… we’re selling fishermen now. And apparently, all of ours look like THIS. 😂Accurate? YES or NO?
Thanks Josh

From the attic tonight. Finally a little sun after all that grey. We saw it begin to peak through as we came around the bend towards Crow Head. The promise of beauty. We were not disappointed.
