The Great House is a magnificent eight bedroom private beach front villa originally designed as a family home by celebrated local architect Ian Morrison in the traditional plantation style. Constructed from local coral stone The Great House is designed to make you instantly feel at home.
Set within one and a half acres of secluded beautiful grounds on a prime Caribbean beachfront location, The Great House has recently been refurbished with East Coast sophistication, Barbadian flair and beachside informality
Every aspect of The Great House encourages guests to enjoy themselves in the way they choose. There is ample space to indulge yourself in moments of solitude, yet the arrangement of the house and chattels around the pool invites sociability. The service, while always attentive, is unobtrusive. This is a family beach house for relaxation and pleasure. Many guests find they rarely wish to leave the property during – or, indeed, at the end of – their stay.
The main house’s ground floor has a spacious entrance hall, reception rooms, bar, piano room, wrap-around covered terraces and one bedroom suite. The sweeping staircase leads up to a further three bedroom suites. Three suites have double beds, and one has twins. All the suites are individually furnished and the beds, dressed in Ralph Lauren linen, are sumptuously comfortable. The three upstairs suites have individual balconies, while the ground floor suite opens onto a cobbled courtyard.
The four chattel houses are located within the gardens and are arranged in two pairs – the Pink Chattel and the Blue Chattel, taking their names from the colours of their linens and fabrics. Each pair interlinks, making them ideal for families with younger children. They can be furnished with double or twin beds. The chattel houses open out onto their own verandas, with the gardens beyond. Like the suites in the main house, all the chattels have en suite bathrooms with walk-in showers, air conditioning and safes.
The Great House allows you to design your own holiday – as a special party, a spa holiday, a wedding or just a way to spend time with family and friends.
Your every need is catered for at The Great House by a team of 16 well trained, friendly full-time staff. The three highly-trained Butlers make sure you lack for nothing. Amongst their many duties, they will set up dining areas in various areas of the house and garden, accompany you on picnics, keep you supplied with cold towels throughout the day, serve afternoon tea in the beachside Gazebo, canapés on the Boardwalk and drinks in the bar. The food is one of The Great House’s greatest pleasures and their extensive menus genuinely cater for all tastes.
‘Sea Breeze’, their 30’ Grady White motorboat, is manned by their Boatman who is on hand during the day to provide the full range of watersports and transport to destinations on the island.
The Great House positively welcomes children, with a cot, high chair, steriliser and baby monitor, plus arrangements can be made for a nanny from our list of preferred suppliers.
The Great House will remind you how much pleasure leisure can be.
