About Judith A. Carrell

Paul and Judy met in 1973 and have been going strong ever since. After moving to 'the islands' in 1986 to run a 76' wooden ketch they stayed active in the marine trades for twenty four years. In that time Paul, a woodworker and carpenter, and Judy, the interior decorator and landscape architect, took ten years to build the Century House Villa and Crows Nest Guest house. This labor of love was designed by Michael Arneborg a prolific architect for the area. The Crows Nest was meant to be the 'rental we would want to discover for our own' Paul and Judy will bid you a warm welcome and will give you as much or as little advice as you need as you discover 'natures little secret' BVI Tourist Board.

Judith A. Carrell purchased this cottage in 1989
Why Judith A. Carrell chose Tortola

Boungainvilleas, Palm trees, Frangipani, and stonework frame the water views from your verandah overlooking Sir Frances Drakes Channel.

What makes this cottage unique

Watching the sunrise over Sir Frances Drakes Channel while planning your day and futures while savouring morning coffee and tea in the hot tub.

Seeing a 43 meter megayacht dock at the marinas down below.

Having a 'sun downer' from the verandah while seeing the evening sky descend around you.

Catching a meteor shower while viewing the Milky Way.

Lovely West End Cottage

5 of 5
Submitted: March 22, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
What a lovely time we had staying at the Crow's Nest! The cottage was as advertised -- and more, because pictures just can't do it justice. Paul and Judy are wonderful hosts - Paul actually picked us up at the ferry dock and helped us arrange for a rental car. They have excellent knowledge of Tortola and were very helpful with places to see and where to eat.

While the listing doesn't state it explicitly, you definitely need a rental car, and there are a few stairs, but it was very manageable. The cottage itself is the perfect size for a couple, extremely clean, very well appointed and decorated. You won't be lacking for anything. Thanks, again for a wonderful stay!

Paul and Judy- we were so glad to have rented the Crows Nest from you.
Perfect for a romantic couple getaway.We will forever remember the
breath-taking view of the harbor from our porch.We really appreciated
all of the thoughtful and convenient touches the Crows Nest offered
us.The only problem was when we had to leave. Hope to come again.Bill and Pam

Absolutely Fabulous

5 of 5

What a wonderful place! Everything you could want - views, comfort, beautiful beaches. Paul & Judy are great hosts. We looked at many places on VRBO but this is the BEST and perfect size cottage for a couple. Very clean, well appointed, charming, romantic. If we returned to the island, this is where we'd stay. The photos caught our attention immediately and everything in the listing was accurate.
We certainly recommend this property. There are so many activities, restaurants...We especially enjoyed a day sail to Jost Van Dyke where we just drove down the hill from the cottage to the marina in Sopers Hole and jumped on the boat. Coming in and out on the ferry from St. Thomas is the way to go - very convenient and you can call ahead to rent a vehicle which was left for us at the ferry dock and be on your way to the Crows Nest and adventures. This property exceeded our expectations.

Charming Tortola Cottage

5 of 5
Submitted: February 17, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Crow's Nest. Paul and Judy are truly exceptional owners. They are friendly, helpful and experienced hosts. The cottage is lovely and comfortable but the view is absolutely breathtaking. When not swimming or basking on a beautiful tropical beach we were on the spacious deck taking in the gorgeous views of Soper's Hole, neighboring islands, some magnificent yachts and the Caribbean Sea. Heaven!
