Guest Comments: We wish to thank you for sharing your special piece of the island with us. We had a wonderful time! The cottage is charming and very comfortable. We really enjoyed our quiet times reading on the breezy patio. Take good care, with warm wishes, Diane & Ron (retired Air Canada pilot), Victoria, B.C. Canada. The cottage has everything anyone could want - we wish we were here for another week or two! Thanks so much - we will be recommending it to all of our friends!! Joan & John Derbyshire, England.

Newstead Cottage - a Gem in Paradise!: Newstead Cottage is a piece of heaven... Furnished to a very high standard,it matches any 4 star hotel in comfort and style. Susan has thought of every home comfort to make a stay at Newstead Cottage feel like you are living in your own home. The patio is a perfect place to sit and relax and just soak up the marvels of nature, when the Humming Birds visit the morning. Situated just minutes from Accra Beach and The Quay Side Restaurant and Shops, it is not necessary to hire a car because public transport is easy to use and the bus stop is almost at the end of the road. Susan is always willing to provide any help and information to make your holiday a holiday to remember. Finding Newstead Cottage was like finding a gem in paradise, after 20 years of visiting Barbados I can safely say that it provides everything that you could want to have a wonderful relaxing holiday. We had our first Christmas in the Caribbean at Newstead Cottage and it certainly will NOT be our last stay there!

Our Home Away from Home!: Well our 9 weeks are finally up and we would like to say thank you to the Archers for making our stay feel like a 2nd home...The cottage is fabulous - we will be telling everyone about it! Love & Best Wishes, Danielle & Chris Derby, England. We had a most enjoyable stay on our 12th trip to Barbados. The cottage is great - we did not lack for anything! It's in an ideal location and its so close to Accra -- the best beach on the island! Cliff & Alayne Winnipeg, Canada

Other Activities: jet-skiing, island safari tours, surfing lessons, duty-free shopping.

Your own piece of paradise in Barbados!

Review Submitted: March 23, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
This is our 2nd visit to this idyllic spot in Barbados. As we found last year, the accommodation is everything as described.If you are thinking about visiting Barbados, we guarantee you will not be disappointed with this accommodation. Added to this, the charming hosts, make you feel very welcome, as do the people of Barbados, wherever you go. You are minutes from all amenities, but at the same time in a peaceful location. We travelled all over on the local transport, which is excellent value and good fun! Fabulous beaches and crystal waters, what more could you want. As you can tell, this holiday rental comes highly recommended!

Paradise Found

Review Submitted: May 4, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
This was the perfect place to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. Carefully selected from its description, Newstead Cottage lived up to expectation and more.Its facilities and our thoughtful hosts from the welcome jug of cool water on arrival, delicious warm banana teabread and car hire booking made for a thoroughly relaxing and comfortable stay. Sitting on the patio with its beautiful garden vista, watching the wildlife and listening to the whistling frogs while sipping rum on the rocks was heaven!
Perfectly positioned for the stunning Accra beach and boardwalk, restaurants and shopping are just a 5 minutes walk away. Car hire isn't necessary owing to good local bus and taxi services. However, travelling around the island in a jeep to take in some sightseeing proved fun.
Locals literally went out of their way to put us back on track if we got lost and we did once or twice! Speightstown pier is still under construction, the Flower Caves cliffs have amazing views of the coastline. Bathsheba and Bottom (Bounty advert like) Bay are worth a visit. We enjoyed Orchid World, Andromeda Gardens and eating at the Hibiscus Cafe. A visit to Earthworks for Bajan souvenirs/art work and to dine at its cafe with panoramic views is definitely a must.
Can recommend Just Grillin for reasonable fresh fare, Berts Sports Bar, the Italian Coffee House for iced cappucinos and The Black Pearl for an excellent steak and beachside location.
For us it was the opportunity for chilling or 'limin', walking along the beach and boardwalk (and yes it really is like the adverts) passing the time of day with friendly locals but above all having the opportunity to stay and return to Newstead each day that made our holiday so enjoyable. Thank you Susan, Paul, Jamie, Alex and Claire. There would be no hesitation in recommending Newstead to others!

A Very Special Place

Review Submitted: April 7, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
We loved Newstead Cottage, and it really felt as if it was our own for the two weeks we spent in wonderful Barbados. A few minutes walk and there is the most beautiful beach, plenty of places to eat and if you want to go elsewhere there are plenty of cheap buses and friendly taxi drivers. We hired a car for a few days as we wanted to travel around the island and enjoyed the independence that the car gave us but it really isn't essential. The owners of the property totally respect your privacy and are never intrusive but will always be on hand to help with information and practical advice. And so, if like us, you are a couple who prefer not to stay in a hotel, then Newstead Cottage really is the perfect place to stay, Highly Recommended.

Had a wonderful time at this amazing property in Barbados. Susan and Paul were fantastic hosts - providing great support and advice when we needed it and otherwise leaving us to our own devices. Needless to say, very romantic and relaxing! Would have no hesitation recommending this property to anybody looking for a charming, central, and private holiday in Barbados.

Review Submitted: February 3, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009
Even though I'd located an affordable airfare, finding a suitable accommodation in Barbados in January remained a typical obstacle for a single traveler. Newstead Cottage saved my life. The apartment is conveniently located within steps of a main transportation road, convenience stores, restaurants and the famous Rockley (aka Accra) Beach (where the new shoreline boardwalk begins). The apartment was cool, spacious, pristine, quiet...and did I mention convenient?...like a dream. I was not at all at a loss for being without a car. The generally flat terrain even made walking a delight. Susan, my host, could not have been more attentive. The ample kitchen made it a fun place to prepare many of my own meals. The free wifi was of particular value to me for communicating effortlessly with editors, clients and family abroad via the internet. For simple inexpensive fare walk over to Just Grillin at the Quayside Centre, or to the Bistrot Monet for a more upscale (but not exorbitant) dinner. Or if you're content to just snatch a bit of fast food, enjoy a chicken and potato roti sandwich at the nearby Chefette (where you may duly note that Barbados is one of the few countries where McDonald's failed). I highly recommend Newstead Cottage for those like myself who enjoy the autonomy of a self-catering retreat and who don't wish to feel dependent upon having a car. I look forward to returning!
