We had the pleasure of staying at Peg's for 3 nights and our experience echoes the positive reviews of other writers. Eileen and Gerald were great hosts and warmly shared a part of their lives with us. Our room was very comfortable (with a view of the harbour across the street), we felt welcome in the house and the homemade... More

Fogo is a fantastic place and Pegs is wonderful. Eileen and Gerald are special people. The best b&bs are run by folks who love and care for their community. Newfoundland is blest to have this type of proprietor and Eileen and Gerald are no exception. Eileen is a workhorse. She does it all to make her guests feel welcome and... More

Impeccably clean, perfectly located, excellent breakfasts, comfortable and cozy . Stimulating conversation with hosts who readily share their knowledge and experience of this unique outport island's history and culture. Traditional island music, complements of Gerald and his students. Fogo Isalnd is a gem. We stayed 3 nights and could have spent a week exploring its communities and many trails. For... More

We stayed at Peg's for several nights while exploring Fogo and the Change Islands. It's a good location for exploring the towns of Fogo, Joe Batt's Arm, and Tilting (which was incredible). Eileen fed us well each morning with oatmeal and a great variety of extras. The home-baked bread smelled so wonderful baking! We had a great view from our... More

There is not a lot of lodging on Fogo Island. Peg's is very clean and comfortable. The bathroom in a few of the rooms can be tight. Had the room with the twin beds for $80.Very small room and would leave the luggage in the car. Other rooms looked larger. Very nice friendly hosts who can give advice about the... More

We stayed at Peg's recently. The room was comfortable and we loved the breakfasts - wonderful home made oatmeal porridge with all the fixings: cranberries, flax seed, raisins, and so on, and toasted home made bread with the typical Newfoundland jams. We loved being able to make tea though the day and evening in the kitchen. And enjoyed the muffins... More

Peg's is one of the first b & b's on Fogo Island, and it's a solid four stars. This is our second visit to Fogo, and second time with Eileen Freake at Peg's. There aren't too many places to stay on the island, and there is a ferry schedule to deal with if you are going to just drop in,... More

I researched a number of places on Fogo Island for my 2-night stay and the testimonials on TripAdvisor led me to Peg's. I was welcomed by Eileen as I stepped out of my car. A wonderful host, she showed me my room and then the house. She made me feel so at home! The next day over a lovely breakfast,... More

When I arrived, no one was home, but a quick phone call, and Eileen came and showed me the home and my room. Everything was neat and tidy. Eileen suggested places to go and see. Unfortunately, I was there in October. I'm sure, if I come back in the summer, when all the touristy things are open, I would have... More

Eileen and Gerald are terrific hosts. Our room was lovely, breakfast delicious and the tips for seeing the island very helpful. We really enjoyed our one night with them and only wish that we could have had another night or two. Definitely would recommend staying at this Fogo gem.
