The estate, with the exotic gardens filled with indigenous plants, is close by to one of the best beaches on Barbados, namely Mullins Beach.
The three-bedroom house is one of a handful of family-owned properties on the estate.The house, recently refurbished, had a lot of effort put into practical details, making sure the house has a ‘home from home’ feel. As well as a spacious fully equipped kitchen and living area furnished with modern sofas and a large dining table, the house has an outside seating area with rattan furniture and a spa pool. The main bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with a shower and tub. The second and third bedrooms share a shower bathroom. All bedrooms are light and airy, with air conditioning.

Barbados, a little paradise approximately 21 by 14 miles, bursts with the charm and hospitality typical of many Caribbean islands, combined with an unmatched natural beauty. Underneath the old-world allure lies a modern infrastructure that includes internationally recognised restaurants, luxury retail brands, world-class banking facilities, high-speed internet, and global television. But it’s the warmth and friendliness of the Barbadian people that lures visitors back to the island year after year.
Barbados is relatively flat, with a diverse countryside and stunning beaches. Coral stone cliffs of 50 to 100 feet rise and fall along the Eastern coastline, separated by small sandy beaches and bays. The South and West Coasts have the famous sandy beaches and the calm, turquoise Caribbean waters. The interior of the island ranges from lush gullies to rolling hills to vast cane fields and plantations.
The climate is warm and sunny all year, with an average daytime temperature ranging from 75 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit (24 to 30 degrees Celsius).
Barbados is the most easterly of the Caribbean islands, spared by most weather systems. The local currency is the Barbadian Dollar, tied to the US Dollar at a fixed rate of approximately 2:1.
Daily flights arrive at Grantley Adams International Airport from North America, the Caribbean, UK and Europe:
There can be few more evocative images than the juxtaposition of lush green gardens against gorgeous ocean hues and if you're looking to sample the best of them then head to Barbados, and you won't be disappointed.
A relatively small island, stretching for just over 20 miles in length, with some superb locations, pitted against white sand backdrops you'll discover endless ways to spend your time as the sun continues to shine.
Whatever you're into sports, relaxation or nature, Barbados has got the lot and if you're looking for a few more temptations then head to our info site at www.onebattaleysmews.com
Barbados is arguably the most delightful host to any democracy on Earth – a place where local fishers sit shoulder to shoulder with international celebrities in rum bars built on stilts overlooking palm-fringed bays, an isle where the great outdoor happy-go-lucky Caribbean culture is celebrated communally by rich and poor alike.
Travel by powerboat down the Platinum Coast and the local skipper will point out villas and mansions in a litany that sounds like contents listing for Hello magazine!
Barbados, like a football match, is a game of two halves. This odd statement is highly relevant to sightseers going around the island because you can divide the place east and west. The West Coast has fabulous beaches and safe, calm seas and fairly built up as a result. One of the best ways of seeing it and learning all about those famous celebrities is to cruise up the coast in one of the many charter boats.
Enjoy a day out in a sleek catamaran, and you will find a happy crew ready to keep you wined and dined for hours, stopping here and there to dive over reefs and meet gentle giant sea turtles.
The East, or Atlantic Coast, is breezy and beautifully wild. Its rugged terrain sweeps down to miles of untouched, windswept beaches bordered by rough seas.
Swimming here not recommended, but walking is. There's even a disused railway line that takes you along the dramatic cliff-tops safely away from traffic. Opened in 1881 and closed in 1937, it makes for an ideal hiking route
You will be amazed to discover just how empty the East Coast is. It is no exaggeration to say that the 20-mile long littoral is one of the most beautiful coastlines in the world – but you can walk an hour or two without seeing a soul.
Tucked just behind the booming beach in mainly green, hilly and scenic bit of the island is the remote Shorey Village, where you can visit Aunt Benn's Bar – the aunt involved being the female relation of the British boxer Nigel Benn.
What you get is a concrete shack boasting a counter and two homemade stools, but this belies the great charm of the place, which seems fossilised in the steamy sugary syrup of the Bajan rural idyll. Hear local men talking in a pure Somerset dialect – albeit one with a touch of Africa about its vowels!
Further down the coast is the beautiful and peaceful Bathsheba, where a magnificent church on a hill looks down upon a windswept tropical beach-fringed paradise – and many have wanted to stay here forever, tempted to make permanent retirement plans!
From here, head west across the widest part of the island to descend the how hills to the capital, with its famous cricket stadium – host of 20-20 matches, a heady experience.
Bridgetown boasts an incredible array of shops as well as some excellent restaurants, as talked about in our other pages.
The country's culture is a lovely blend of English and West African traditions – a primarily Christian ethos punctuated by pockets of Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and the rapidly growing Rastafarianism.
This peaceful multicultural society is one of the real charms of Barbados; the people are kind, helpful and open.
Platinum Coast Beaches
Named mainly due to the shimmering sand, however, in recent years, more indicative of the wealthy and famous mega-rich who call it home, the Platinum Coast is Barbados's main stretch of shoreline. Located to the west of the island, just to the north of Holetown, this is an exquisitely beautiful area and well worth a visit even if you're only lingering to see if you can catch sight of a reclusive billionaire playboy or two.
Surfing the Soup Bowl
The east coast of Barbados is fast becoming a mecca for surfers and bodyboarders who are 'in the know' thanks to the sumptuous Soup Bowl swells and the fact that nobody else gives the east side the time of day.
Yes, it's slightly more rugged but slightly less beautiful? No way, and if you're looking for a break from the luxury hotels and villas around the the Platinum Coast, then take a trip to the wild side for an altogether more regular trip and stay in Bathsheba for a unique experience
Kensington Oval
Located just to the west of the island's capital city of
Bridgetown, the Kensington Oval has been the stomping ground of many of Barbados's sporting heroes and a visit here will allow you under the skin of a game that is deep-rooted in the hearts and minds of the locals. Recently modernised to host international matches, including the 2007 World Cup Final, this is the home of West Indian cricket. Kensington Oval also boasts an iconic statue of the great Sir Gary Sobers.
Welchman Hall Gully
Calling all hikers – get your boots on because right here is where you start walking!
Welchman's is an exceptional environment that embodies the island's deep love and understanding of plant life, cultural heritage and natural history. The gully is intrinsically beautiful and fresh feel in managing to combine tropical wilderness with walking trails that make for a truly magical experience and a must for amateur botanists.

Harrison’s Cave
Dripping limestone and the cold, fresh air of an underground cave is what the doctor ordered on a hot day in Barbados and if you're into stalactites and stalagmites then welcome to heaven.Located in the parish of St. Thomas, in central Barbados, Harrison's Cave is very easy to reach, and if you're hoping to find out a little more about the early explorers then knowledgeable tour guides will be happy to enlighten you.
Dive to the SS Stavronikita
There are a fair few diving and snorkelling spots in Barbados however, once you've swum down to the depths of the SS Stavronikita you probably won't want to go anywhere else.
The Greek freighter is in 120 feet of water off the west coast, and 360 feet long, covered in coral and teeming with tropical fish. One of the island's most popular dive spots and perfect for underwater adventurers
Andromeda Botanic Gardens
This beautiful six-acre active tropical paradise can in St. Joseph's Parish has stunning views of the island's more wild and east coast and serve as a real example of Barbados's beauty
