Owner and Host Ann O'brien
Ann comes from a long line of seafaring Newfoundlanders whose family roots can be traced to the Bay Bulls area where her father was a fisherman. In fact her brothers still run O'Brien's Boat Tours in Bay Bulls, one of the most popular and award winning whale watching services in the province. From childhood she has developed a deep love and appreciation for the sea and the hard working people who made their living from it.
Like many Newfoundlanders, Ann carries this strong work ethic and love of life with her wherever she goes and her guests are treated to a good taste of Newfoundland culture and history - with a few laughs along the way.
Speaking of taste, having been involved in the hospitality and tourism industy all her life, Ann knows a thing or two about how to make a guest feel right at home, and her B&B is known for serving delicious traditional treats such as local berries, salt fish cakes, really great local sausage and other home cooked goodies, and the best tea and coffee on historic Gower Street.
