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!

Newstead Cottage - perfection in paradise

Newstead Cottage is the most perfect holiday rental in Barbados. We were greeted by Claire who proudly showed us around the cottage then offered suggestions of places to visit, restaurants to try and the local grocery shops. The cottage had everything we needed for our two week holiday. Exceptionally clean, very comfortable queen size bed, air conditioning if you need it (but we used the ceiling fan) wi-fi that let us gleefully send photos and emails back to family; and just a short walk to Accra Beach, one of the island's top beaches. Shakers, just around the corner, for the best char-grilled ribs; minutes away is Just Grillin' for flying fish; The Ackee Tree for the roti, and the Tiki Bar for fabulous rum punches and burgers. We had breakfast on the terrace every morning and were delighted to watch the hummingbirds come to the flowers that grew in the cottage's front yard. We hired a car for three days to tour the island, we rode in the amazing ZR vans that help out with the public buses. Anywhere for 2 BD dollars. Being a photographer, I loved the fact I could go about with my equipment and feel very safe. The people were so helpful and it made our time there an unforgettable vacation. We visited St-Nicholas Abbey, Harrison's Cave, collected sea glass at Martin's Bay on the east coast, stopped at little communities across the island, shopped at the local grocery store that offers free shuttle service back to the cottage (as we cooked up culinary delights in the fully equipped kitchen) and thoroughly enjoyed the Oistin's Fish Fry. We walked along many beaches and found amazing rock formations (the birth of the island) along Barclay's Park on the east coast. To see the hills created by the Caribbean and Atlantic plates was humbling to my long ago studies in geology. We simply immersed ourselves in the Bajan culture. We will definitely return to Barbados for future holidays and take up residence again at Newstead Cottage.

Owner's Response: Hi Karen & Dave -
I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Newstead Cottage and that you took advantage of the fact that there are so many fabulous restaurants within walking distance. Our favourite beach has always been Accra (a.k.a. Rockley) and I'm glad that you both agree -- it really is one of the loveliest beaches on the island and because it is within a few minutes walking distance makes Newstead Cottage the perfect location -- having the Tiki Bar there now is a real bonus! :)
We look forward to your return to Barbados...
Until then, best wishes to you both,
Susan

Newstead Cottage, Rockley, Barbados

My wife and I arrived at Newstead in the evening and were welcomed by Claire our Housekeeper.Claire made it feel like home and gave us lots of useful information about the Cottage and the local area,shops,restaurants, beaches etc.
The Cottage was very clean and comfortable and we felt relaxed straight away.The facilities were everything you need and I had even taken my laptop to send photos home and make all our friends jealous!.
Once we had familiarised ourseves with the area we settled into a routine of one day on the beach the next day exploring the Island.The nearest beach 'Accra' is superb and only five minutes walk from the Cottage.We ony used the local tansport (bus) for getting around the Island.The buses are not only good fun and give you a chance to mix with the locals but they are cheap at two Bajan dollars for any journey is great!.All buses pass down the main road just a short walk from the Cottage.
Because the Cottage has an excellent kitchen we 'ate in' some nights.This not only helps with the budget but also provides a very relaxed evening especially after a tiring day touring Barbados.We tried several restaurants all within walking distance and all were recommended by either Claire or a friend who stays in Rockley often.We were very impessed with all the restaurants which varied in price.The nearest, Shakers, is excellent, very reasonably priced and just two minutes walk.Others we tried were Neru, Tappas and if you want to finish the holiday in style Champers is a little more expensive but a great location on the seafront.
We really enjoyed the holiday and plan to return next year.I would not hesitate to recommend Newstead Cottage to anyone planning to visit Barbados.We also found Susan the owner very helpful when booking and she has since been in touch with an update of any improvements being carried out at the Cottage.

This was the first time that we had stayed at Newstead Cottage but our 4th time in Barbados. For location, comfort etc I can say that this is the place to be. Nothing was too much trouble for Claire, the cottage is exactly as advertised. If we can get booked again then we will definitely be back here.

Owner's Response: Thanks for your review Kathy and I am so glad to hear that you loved Newstead Cottage! It really is a little piece of paradise - close to everything and yet in such peaceful and picturesque surroundings... We look forward to your return to Barbados!!!

My husband and I stayed for 6 glorious weeks at the Newstead Cottage. Susan was so easy to deal with and always answered our many questions quickly, usually the same day. The location is great, just a few minutes from Accra Beach and the Quayside Mall to the left and Lanterns Mall to the right. There is a scotia bank at the bottom of the street as well as a taxi stand across from the Quayside Mall. You can also get one of the many buses that come frequently to take you anywhere on the island for 2BD dollars at the bottom of the street.

The cottage was clean and comfortable with a good size kitchen. The bedroom is roomy and it has a nice bathroom with shower only. There is a safe where you can keep your passports etc. There is air conditioning in the bedroom which you can use at night if needed. During the day we enjoyed the breeze blowing through the cottage so you can hear the sounds of Barbados.
At night the tree frogs are really noisy but you soon get used to them.

We walked the boardwalk every day which starts right at the bottom of the street right beside the Magic Isle Hotel.

When you exit the cottage and turn left there is a place to get eggs and chicken and if you turn left there you will see Shakers a great little restaurant with very good food. It is busy with locals and visitors. It is best to make reservations and they only take cash.

We enjoyed sitting on the porch watching the hummingbirds. Claire the housekeeper came twice a week to change sheets and do a general cleaning. We enjoyed her visits and chats with her and she takes good care of you. There are many books for reading and it was nice to keep in touch with our family with the wireless internet. If you need something just ask and she will try and get it for you.

We also rented a car for a week and visited many beaches and places on the island. We felt very safe in Barbados and the locals were friendly. For the other 5 weeks we walked everywhere and occasionally took the bus. We walked to The Garrison and watched the horse races. We also walked to St Lawrence Gap a few times and Carlisle Bay and even Bridgetown. We never felt unsafe during the day or eve.

You are about about 10-15 min walk to the Super B supermarket where they will give you a free shuttle back to your condo or cottage.

Overall a wonderful place to stay, close to many beaches, stores, restaurants and we cant wait to come back. We fell in love with Barbados and can't wait to come back.
Sue and Rob

Owner's Response: Thank you Susan! We are thrilled that both you & Rob thoroughly enjoyed your stay at Newstead Cotage and we look forward to your return to Barbados!!!
