Our arriving guests often gasp with delight at the amazing view below them as they enter the house. The influence of Barbados is found all around, from the shingle roofs and wooden floors, and stone walls, to the Venetian style window shutters. Inside, the chic and refined style, with its white tones is complemented by a multitude of decorative objects and owners’ treasures from around the world.
