The Mill House, Barbados

Description

A tropical hideaway with a unique twist – this luxury villa in Barbados is in fact a cluster of buildings built around a 17th-century sugar mill.

The Mill House is set in eight acres of landscaped gardens, which offer magical walks through the orchard and fabulous play space for little ones. Wander through the lush, tropical paths to the hidden-away Jacuzzi with your drinks, or sit and relax in the gazebo up on the cliff side, with majestic, sweeping views of the island’s coastline. Take a dip in the private infinity pool, grab a partner and head out to the tennis court for a game – the court is floodlit so you can play on into the evening…or disappear for the day to this luxury villa’s own beach house on Gibbes beach with a luxury picnic packed courtesy of your chef.

Inside of this luxury villa there’s plenty of room for everyone to either gather together or find their own bit of peace and quiet. The air-conditioned bedrooms all offer plenty of privacy and a relaxing feel. With two in the main house, two in the ridge side cottage and four of them in the surrounding gate cottages, this villa is ideal for large groups of several families to share.

A raft of staff are always on hand at Mullins Mill to ensure your towels are always beach-ready, your drink is permanently refreshed and your every wish and whim is looked after. Your only job is to sit back and enjoy one of the most chilled-out spots on earth to the full.

Eating

Meals out on the large dining veranda overlooking the gardens are a real treat. A team of staff including a chef and butler are on hand throughout your stay to serve breakfast, lunch and dinner and will be happy to prepare a variety of international cuisines and signature dishes for you, such as Mahi Mahi or Caribbean yellow fish tuna. On the chef’s day off, just two meals will be served giving you the opportunity to try out some of the fabulous local restaurants. We particularly like Nishi with its contemporary Asian cuisine and Elbow Room, where mains are served on hot lava stone grills – both in nearby Holetown.

Kids

There’s so much to keep children busy at this luxury villa from the spacious grounds to run around in, to the fabulous swimming pool. Guests also have the use of the villa’s nearby beach house, just a five minute drive away – ask your chef to pack you a picnic and really make the most of a day spent on the beach.

The terraces around the house mean that even if it rains, they can still ‘play out’, and the study is kitted out with board games to while away an afternoon indoors.
