Family hotels and homes in Jamestown

This felt like a ‘home away from home’ with everything we needed. The location is tucked up on the hill and was an ideal base for our daily hikes all over the island. We appreciated all the small touches that made us feel welcome, including the scrabble board we availed ourselves of in the evening, as we sipped unique, locally sourced artisanal gin. It helped the aching muscles after conquering ‘Jacobs Ladder’. We’ve never met such friendly but unobtrusive people anywhere, starting with the taxi driver, Colin, who the owner arranged to pick us up at the airport. He kindly took us to a supermarket to pick up supplies and orientated us to the island. Matt at the tourist information centre in town was great to talk to - would suggest going there early in the week to see the open hours of the main attractions over the coming week, so you don’t miss anything. A visit to the nearby Plantation House to see Jonathan the oldest living land creature in the world, is a must! The home is also close to the Lemon tree valley post box walk.

Location, view, food, attention to detail of my every need, friendliness of hosts Derek and Linda and their family and friends. I honestly loved my stay here and much due to all that these two people did for me. Not just me, to all others they are in contact with. They are happy and it shows. They share as I see is the island way. I just left today and feel sad I’m gone. I did not take photos of my room or bathroom. it is super comfortable and a fully furnished self contained bedroom/bathroom with a view to die for. And the food they serve is out of this world from breakfast to lunch and dinner. Won’t be there? Don’t worry, Linda will make you a delicious sandwich and brownie.

Beautiful ex-East Indian Company HQ building from the 17th century in the very heart of Jamestown, just one minute away from the sea. Very well kept. English breakfast. The best place for eating out on the island. Spacious rooms with A/C.

It was really clean very spacious and a view to die for close to Diane peak.
