Sea views from this hilltop location inspired Pulitzer Prize–winning author Annie Proulx, who penned The Shipping News here. Sleep in a cottage (the more expensive ones can sleep up to four people) or in the more modern main lodge with a cozy living-room fireplace and a deck to watch icebergs in comfort. It's only 8km from the Viking site.
