Set in the tranquil village of Saint Bride’s, this modest motel offers practical and comfy accommodation just steps from the Cape St. Mary's Ecological Reserve. Each unit includes a fully equipped kitchen, inviting travelers who prefer to prepare their own meals, especially beneficial since local dining options and shops are limited. The motel's quiet surroundings create a peaceful retreat after exploring rugged cliffs and seabird colonies nearby.
Guests praise the well-maintained, renovated interiors and the warm hospitality from the owner. The absence of a fitness center or pool is balanced by the easy access to outdoor activities, including scenic hikes and beach visits. Strong Wi-Fi and free parking add convenience for those passing through or staying several nights.
This motel serves as a functional base for nature lovers and families seeking a restful night near one of Newfoundland’s standout ecological sites without the frills of a large hotel.

“The capeway is a wonderful place to stay in st. Brides! Hilda is so lovely! And the rooms are delightfully renovated with charming decor and fully stocked with all the appliances you might need. A very pleasant place to stay while visiting the Gannet colony at Cape st Mary’s!”
“We stayed for a couple nights in July 2023. The location to the reserve is perfect. The room was spacious and very clean. Hilda the owner is incredibly hospitable. I would definitely recommend to anybody passing through the area or staying a couple days to go to the st. Mary's ecological reserve. One of the nicest places we stayed at in our two weeks in Newfoundland.”
“We received an exceptionally warm welcome upon our arrival. The Inn was spotless and quiet with large rooms that have a kitchen and seating area. We would highly recommend the Capeway, if you are making your way along the Irish Loop. The location worked well for us as we explored St. Mary's Ecological Reserve and made our way up the peninsula. Remember to bring breakfast as the only restaurant in town doesn't open until lunchtime.”
“Best stay yet. Comfy bed, very clean, well restored pretty building. Wifi is good. Housekeeper was friendly. Ask for the room with the kitchen if asked, its fully equipped with everything except food. 20m or so from cape st marys. Locals offered tips for where to explore at the restaurant. Our biggest worry was wether we'd be able to hear the foghorn, and no we couldn't. Village cons: no cell reception and only one restaurant locally, no grocery stores or coffee shops. But this place can't control that. No breakfast offered at motel, so bring your breakfast with you or you're out of luck until the next town.”
