    The Battery sits on the entrance to the harbour, on the slopes of Signal Hill. It is sometimes described as an outport within the city of St. John's and is noted for its steep slopes, and colourful houses. The Battery has been the site, over the centuries, for gun emplacements (batteries), such as Fort Waldegrave, for the defence of St. John's Harbour, including during both World Wars. It is home to Chain Rock, a land outcropping to which a large chain was attached connecting to Fort Amherst, since as early as 1770, to prevent the entry of enemy ships into St John's harbour. Chain Rock is one of two rocks located on opposite sides of the Narrows, the aptly named entrance to the harbour; Pancake Rock is on the opposite shore. The space between the two rocks is 174 metres. A defensive chain was stretched between the rocks by means of a capstan at nightfall. During World War I and II the chain was replaced with anti-submarine nets.

Staying at the Battery Harbour Home made our first trip to St. John's was very enjoyable and memorable. Even before we arrived, we received the email with check-in instructions that were simple and easy to use. The Battery Harbour home was in a great location: easy access to food/drinks/entertainment and when we did stay in, we enjoyed the views from the balconies. The house was well equipped with toiletries, kitchen supplies, and well organized. Check out was easy as well, besides the specific requirements for trash/recycle, we had no issues with check out. Thanks again, we had a great time at the house and at St. John's.

This was a perfect home away from home for our group of 6 adults. Each couple had their own bathroom and plenty of space to either be altogether or chill out by ourselves. There was an extra bedroom that we didn't use that could be for another couple or a couple of kids. It was a bonus to have the extra kitchen downstairs, although we didn't need it on this trip, I have rented lots of vacation homes and not had enough refrigeration space for all the food that is needed with a large group. We enjoyed the main balcony that overlooked the harbor, it could have had some outdoor chairs but we moved the kitchen chairs out while sitting outside.This home was in a perfect area for walking to town. Very close to drive to Signal Hill and the Rooms. We also drove to Cape Spear and did the Irish Loop.Parking is not that great, we had a large van that would not fit under the balcony but had no problem parking across the street. Overall, this was a great, very clean vacation rental. I always have a lot of questions, and the hosts responded very quickly to each one. I would recommend this home and would also rent again if coming to St. Johns.
