Grates Cove Studios

About our little Studio on the Edge of the World

Grates Cove Studios is a place where you can eat, explore and create in the beautiful, rugged coastal landscapes of Newfoundland’s historic Grates Cove and the scenic Baccalieu Trail. Stay overnight at our Harbor View B&B or Snug Harbor Vacation Home, both offering stunning views of icebergs, whales, and the Baccalieu Island Ecological Reserve. Dine on a fusion of Newfoundland Cajun home cooking in the Old School House; savour traditional Louisiana gumbo created with snow crab and other local ingredients that are fresh in season. The restaurant at Grates Cove Studios allows owners Terrence and Courtney Howell to offer the dishes they have enjoyed cooking together since their courtship in South Korea.

Located on the Baccalieu Trail at the most northerly point of the Avalon Peninsula, the town of Grates Cove is a national historic site boasting hiking trails, dry stone rock walls and breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean. Grates Cove Studios are a home away from home for artists, writers, and travelers alike. Just a scenic two-hour drive from the city of St. John’s, and open year round.

Nearby attractions include Northern Bay Sands, Blundon Heritage House, Baccalieu View Walking Trail, Heart's Content Cable Station, Winterton Boat Museum and Salmon Cove Sands.
