Lovely house with beautiful views of Jolly Harbour
We stayed for 12 nights in Cotton House. The house is perched on the side of Sugar Ridge. Sugar Ridge is a secluded estate with security access. The house is as described with comfortable beds and AC in the bedroom only. The kitchen is well appointed, but we ate out most nights. The plunge pool has beautiful views towards the west. The house was nicely furnished.
The hill is very steep but one can walk down to a supermarket, restaurants and even the beach. The walk up would be a challenge but there are taxis in the area.
Our largest issue was with the building work just below us where a house was being built with hammering, drilling and general building work going on all day - Monday to Saturday. Also above are other houses being built with frequent large building tracks trundling past at a very slow pace due to the steepness of the hill. At the level of the house is a sleeping policeman which means the trucks have to do into first. The next door plot might be for sale as constant strimming work was being done and people were viewing this property. I’m sure the building work is a temporary and intermittent, but we were unlucky to have it every day. We were never informed of his potential building. I reached out to the owner, who was surprised of the building work starting so early, but at least it was only from eight till five! The videos taken are a “joy” to watch.
So five stars for the cottage, but only two stars for the noise.
