Margate Gardens 2 bedroom ground floor apartment is very conveniently located on the South Coast of Barbados. Across the road from the popular 1.5 kilometre board walk. It is the first Barbados Boardwalk by the sea, complete with panoramas, seats and retreats. All ages and abilities use it. A breathtaking 10 minute stroll to one of the best beaches on the South Coast, Rockley, is only a stone throw away. St. Lawrence Gap, the entertainment centre of Barbados is just 2 km away. Restaurants, malls, bars, convenience stores, fast food restaurants, within walking distance. The historical Garrison is just 1 km away. Should you prefer not to rent a car, public transport is at your finger tips. For the golfers, Rockley 9 hole is 1.5 Km away and the local favourite Barbados Golf Club is 9 km away. Yet, once you are at Margate Gardens, surrounded by lush tropical gardens and central communal pool you feel relaxed and unaware of all that is going on so close. Quiet, serene and well kept.
