Beach Break House

Description

A five-minute drive from Speightstown on Barbados' north-eastern coast, Beach Break House provides the perfect island getaway for a group of up to eight. With its absolutely breath-taking ocean views, this villa is as close to the beach as it's possible to be, and it offers a private deck and plunge pool just steps away.

This two-storey villa is ideal for exploring Barbados' beautiful Platinum Coast, and within easy reach of the Westmoreland and Sandy Lane golf clubs. It is ideally positioned for Speightstown and a short drive from the ever-popular Holetown just down the coast, as it is located midway between the two towns.

The villa features a terrace on the lower level with sun loungers and a tempting plunge pool which is perfect for a soak as the sun goes down. The upper level has another balcony terrace with seating which looks directly out on the Caribbean Ocean. This terrace adjoins the main living area of the house which provides lots of comfortable lounge space with television and DVD.

Also, with direct access to the terrace is an elegant dining area with seating for eight, which complements a high-quality kitchen with a breakfast bar and pantry. A cook/ housekeeper is available to prepare lunch and dinner for you each day.

Four beautifully furnished bedrooms each have their own en-suite bathroom. One has twin beds, and all are kept cool with a ceiling fan and air-conditioning.

Once a busy port, nearby Speightstown is a lovely place to experience the real Barbados. Look out for the fish fry at the Six Men's Fish Market on Friday and Saturday nights – the catch is as fresh as it gets. Around 15 minutes' drive to the south, Holetown is the home of this side of the island's coolest nightlife, whether you want to hit the clubs or enjoy dinner at a beautiful beachfront restaurant.

#### Location
Formerly an important port nicknamed ‘Little Bristol', charming Speightstown has an authentic edge which contrasts with the more tourist-targeted Holetown to the south. While no longer a seafaring hub, it's still busy and enjoyably historic. A museum and gallery of Caribbean Art are among its attractions, as are its beautiful beaches which are quieter than many of those along the coast.

North of the town, the Six Men's Fish Market is the place to be on Friday and Saturday nights. Its fish fry is quite the occasion, where you can enjoy the fresh catch under the night sky, along with live entertainment. A 165ft-long shipwreck called the Pamir lies just off Six Men's Bay, and is part of the reason this is a popular spot for scuba-diving too.

Head south of Speightstown, and the glamorous ‘Platinum Coast' awaits you. The area around Holetown is something of a playground for the rich and famous, attracted no doubt by its secluded coves, white sand beaches and cool waterfront restaurants. Plenty of luxury stores and hotels have made their mark in Holetown, and there's lots of nightlife, especially around First and Second Streets. A stroll along the boardwalk is a great way to soak up the atmosphere of this most upscale of Barbadian towns.

Inland from Speightstown lies the natural beauty of the Farley Hill National Park, just eight minutes' drive from town. The park was once the site of a beautiful Georgian mansion house which entertained royalty – the remains of it are still there today. Enjoying a fresh Atlantic breeze from the east, it's a fine place for a picnic or to enjoy live entertainment – events such as the Barbados Reggae Festival are often held at Farley Hill.
