An electronic gate ushers you into the palm-lined driveway and covered parking area of this Caribbean classic.
Built on three levels, this superb villa's main floor offers the rich and beautifully-furnished Great Room with a formal dining area and an office with a powder room. Red tile floors are strewn with oriental rugs, walls are accented with antique prints, and tasteful attention to detail and lavish furnishings is delightfully evident throughout the house. Handcrafted mahogany windows and doors open out from Quantock's Great Room to a classic West Indian covered verandah with informal dining and sitting areas with views of the glorious gardens and the sea, where you can relax to tropical bird song and cooling tradewinds. The large kitchen is detailed with custom mahogany cabinetry and granite countertops. Just outside the kitchen windows is a picture-perfect garden courtyard with magnificent tropical plantings such a pink torch ginger, ferns and towering traveler palms. In the east wing of the main level is the very private Floral Suite, a beautifully-furnished and air-conditioned king bed master bedroom/bath suite. A half-flight staircase leads to Quantock House's west wing and to the Monkey and French Terra Cotta Suites, two charming air-conditioned queen bedroom/bath suites. All three of these fully-screened suites enjoy private balconies overlooking the gardens and the wide-angled blue ocean views beyond. Another half-level down is the very private, air-conditioned Patio Suite with two queen beds, perfect for children and their nanny. Five steps below the Patio Suite level is the just-remodeled pool (which may be heated for an additional charge). The pool is surrounded by an expanded pool deck and features an alfresco dining area with a stainless steel gas grill; the deck and pool are surrounded by lush gardens. Just off the poolside dining patio is the cabana kitchen, boasting a sink, mini-fridge, a blender, microwave, toaster, coffeemaker, and dishes and silverware for convenient poolside cocktails and casual dining. A path leads down the hill from the dining patio into the hillside garden. First class and well tended in every way, Quantock House is highly recommended...five stars!
There is a small cottage on the property where quiet, long-term tenants live. However, they have their own gate and their own road to the cottage and will not interfere with your privacy at Quantock House.
