Area Information |
| Newfoundland
Situated in the North East Maritimes,
This undiscovered territory is home to
Pristine rivers, lakes and forests, with a
Population of only about 500,000 spread
over 400,000km this area is still largely
Wilderness.
Inhabited by Maritime Archaic Indians
& Beothunks for several Thousand years,
landed by Norseman about 1,000 years
ago, and ‘discovered’ by Italian Navigator
John Cabot in 1497. It became an important
trading post for fishing ships and claimed
by England in 1583, but colonization didn’t
start until the 1600’s. Fishing has long been
it’s economic sustenance, but settlement
was outlawed by King Charles 1st, until
the 19th Century.
Newfoundland reluctantly joined the
Confederation of Canadian Provinces in 1949,
after much controversy, but its ties to the UK remain strong today.
Marble Mountain Ski Resort
Billed as the best skiing east of the
Rockies, Marble Mountain is blessed
with ideal ski conditions averaging 16
feet of snow a season, yet the maritime
climate prevents the temperatures
dropping to Artic levels. 35 trails
cover 175 acres of piste, with a mix
of beginner 19%, Intermediate 36%
Advanced 32% and 13% for
those ‘Experts’ amongst us.
There is snow making for early winter.
There are over 50km of groomed Cross
Country ski trails with Night lights,
Yurts, Gazebo, etc.
There are some of the usual Resort amenities
including Restaurants, Bars, however, there
are few on-site accommodations, which means
property close by will return a strong
occupancy and rental return.
But if that’s not exciting enough for
you, try Snowshoeing, Ice Climbing,
Snowmobiling, Ice Skating, Sledding Cat Skiing
or the latest craze of Snow Kiting! Marbleview Estates from Ski hill
Newfoundland
The summer is equally busy in Newfoundland with activities like: Fishing, boating, kayaks, rafting, wind surfing, horseback riding, hiking, camping, mountain bikes and golf. The crystal clear water is perfect for salmon, trout etc. and the coastal waters provide some of the best seafood available. The local Lobster and Salmon are considered to some of the best in the world!
Wildlife is abundant with birds and fish, caribou and moose! (Estimated population of 100,000) there is always something of wonder to see. But visit Gros Morne National Park for spectacular scenery.
Humber Valley Resort
Internationally renowned as a destination resort, with a host of activities it attracts visitors from across the globe and is fast becoming the European destination of choice for adventure tourism and outdoor activity. With summer long and warm, but rarely hot, its untouched natural beauty is breath-taking, whether taking a round of Golf or relaxing in the clean air.
The Resort boasts Restaurants, Activities, Golf (2nd course scheduled 2008) and planned to expand greatly.
Weather: Renowned for its independence and diversity, Newfoundland is home to an array of climates and weather. It covers an area of 108 860 km2, with elevations ranging from sea level to 800 m. Its situation on the eastern side of North America favours strong seasonal contrasts in the visiting air masses.
Winter temperatures in Newfoundland show the day-to-day variability that is characteristic of a stormy maritime climate. ln the interior, winter temperatures average -6C -10C, on the southeast coast, the moderating influence of the ocean allow the winter average -2C -4C. The lowest Newfoundland temperature on record is -41.1C, set at Woodale Bishop`s Falls on Feb. 4, 1975.
Summer is short and cool, average temperatures in coastal areas around 14C, but inland averages may climb over 16C. Sunny summer days in Newfoundland, however, are among the most delightful anywhere in Canada. With afternoon highs in the low twenties, they are warm enough to be comfortable and yet cool enough to permit vigorous activity. The highest temperature ever recorded on the island is 36C in 1976.
Humber Valley is sheltered from the extreme weather patterns and is surprisingly calm, summer is usually dry and warm and winter temps average a little below freezing, allowing ski conditions to remain optimal.
Newfoundland
Getting there:
By Air:
A 5 hour flight from England to capital city,
St. John`s, a one-hour connector flight to
Deer Lake, a 20 minute drive to
Marble View Estates.
There is a seasonal but regular direct charter
from Gatwick (London), to Deer Lake, Newfoundland. Runs Twice weekly during the Winter and Summer.
Return flights (Inclusive):
Air Canada – Heathrow to Deer Lake via Halifax -£640 1st June, £532 1st Dec.
BA- Heathrow – Deer Lake via Montreal - £750 1st June, £594 1st Dec.
BMI – Heathrow – Deer Lake via Toronto - £773 1st June,
BMI – Heathrow – St Johns direct £541 1st June, £447 1st Dec.
By Sea:
There are primarily two "Marine Atlantic" ferry routes, to the Island of Newfoundland:
1. North Sydney, Nova Scotia to Port Aux Basques, Newfoundland. Year-round ferry service involves a 5 to 6 hour 96 nautical mile journey across the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
2. During the summer months an additional ferry route leaves Sydney, Nova Scotia to Argentia, Newfoundland (East Coast) 14 hour - 280 nautical miles.
Investment
Land values have increased dramatically over the past 3 years, with 3 factors are driving them:
1. Substantial upgrades made to the Ski Resort, including a new ‘Base of the mountain’ centre, snow making equipment etc.
2. The establishment of the Humber Valley Resort, with Golf, Conference facilities and families relocating. There are now over 300 homes under development with more to come.
3. The expansion of Deer Lake Airport and the Direct Charter from the UK (Seasonal), brings in international Tourists direct into the area in only 5 hours.
This is encouraging an explosion in Property Development and speculation. One local developer sold his entire development to an investor, he is now working on a second, where prices are 35% higher and already 30% SOLD!
Property Values in the Resort are still less than most Ski/Mountain areas in North America, we envision there is still much to come in an area with more development and prices have a long way to go.
