The Inn by Mallard Cottage

A Historic Getaway

Nestled in the heart of historic Quidi Vidi Village, one of North America’s oldest fishing communities, The Inn by Mallard Cottage offers a boutique stay rich in character, charm, and coastal heritage.

Clad in Cottle Island spruce clapboard with spruce board interiors the inns pay homage to Newfoundland materials and construction methods.

Built using insulated concrete forms, the inns are among the most energy efficient buildings in Newfoundland.
