I booked at the last minute on a holiday weekend to a facility that stated 1 room left, so it was a wonderful surprise to find I lucked out. Great room, amazing breakfast, free parking, in a quiet area, helpful, charming hostess who makes you feel welcome.I have limited mobility these days and this was not a problem with the facility or with Jane

Jane made do you feel very welcome in her home and was very hospitable. Breakfast was great! The location was convenient, just a 10 minute walk to the beach.

Brigitte Canada

The breakfast was delicious and the property well kept. It is a relaxing and comfortable place to stay. Jane is a great hostess and a pleasure to talk to.

Maria Canada

Where to begin! The location is so stellar, I checked in, got settled and took an 8 minute walk down to grab dinner. Jane's hospitality is second to none. She is delightful, kind, and generous. My room was super cozy, with everything needed, perfect temperature, and very private. Breakfast was luxurious, and made with so much love. French toast on portuguese sweet bread and delicious local bacon, with an abundance of fresh fruit and the perfectly strong enough coffee! I am so grateful to also be able to have conversations, and learn more about what inspired her to create such a gem of a business bringing people in from all over the World. The energy and mood of the environment was like home! Jane puts so much love in her service, and you can tell that she doesn't miss any details to make her guest feel at home! I will definitely be coming again, with my husband, and perhaps a girl's trip too!

Diane Canada

Jane was a wonderful host and an excellent cook! We would recommend Dover house to everyone!

Dover House has introduced advanced cleaning processes during the recent pandemic and practices social distancing. We are a period lake house built in 1947 with lovely architectural details reminiscent of the period. The rooms are comfortably furnished with cottage luxe ambiance and we are situated right across from the lake. Dover House is a 10 minute walk away from the shops, restaurants and main beach. Prices include European Continental breakfast for two.
Jane has been hosting guests at Dover house for 8 seasons and throughout her career for over 25 years. She loves to travel, cook and enjoys meeting people from all over the world.
Port Dover has been a quaint beach destination for over 100 years and has been developing a popular winery and restaurant for many years. Whether you come for the beach or the fish and chips or the dozens of wineries, we guarantee you will have plenty to do and enjoy!
