Our stay at Mullins Bay House

We have just had a fabulous holiday at Mullins Bay House. The house is both beautiful and practical, spacious, well equipped, clean and comfortable. Anthea the housekeeper and Andrew the gardener could not have been friendlier or more helpful and worked extremely hard. The garden is absolutely stunning and the pool area a great extra despite being so near the beach. I would highly recommend this property and we all agreed we would stay again in the future. Your info and service was excellent. We have been to Barbados many times before but the friends we travelled with had not - they said it was the best holiday they had ever had. Our favourite things to do are: St Nicholas Abbey, Andromeda Gardens, beach walk at Bathsheba, cocktails at the Roundhouse Bathsheba, snorkelling at Folkestone Marina Holetown, Fishmarket at Sixmens, swimming on Gibbs beach, walk through Welchman Hall Gully, go on a yellow bus to Speightstown and have lunch at the Fisherman's Pub. Dinner at the Lonestar is also a great night out if you pre book a beachside table and aren't too bothered about the actual meal!!! Go for the location and nice waiters. A good contrast was Chris's place up the Shell Gallery Road from Gibbs - great local food, music and dancing and very cheap. Favourite meal at Ju Ju's - beachfront chattel house hidden between Lonestar and Dive Shop on main road - slow service but scrumptious and 'real'! Re the house itself, the garden and pool are shared with the two other apartments adjoining and although the place is suitable for anybody I would definitely check who is in the other properties before booking if possible unless you are booking it all. We had a lovely quiet week as two older couples were in the other houses but on the last night a baby arrived and it did disturb us. The properties are quite close together or joined through a connecting door and I would not have liked to share with small children or a noisy party although of course one is out quite a bit. Overall a simply fantastic place to stay.
