Dudley Wood Beachouse Villa is set just off the tree-lined road in a leafy part of St Peter, Dudley Wood is one of a collection of holiday villas and residences that are dotted along the prime beachfront location of Gibbs. Unlike further down the coast in St James, this coastal strip has a much quieter feel and the tree-lined road creates an air of coolness and calm. It was traditionally the choice of those seeking a retreat from the more fashionable beaches, and this atmosphere remains the same today. A door from the home leads out to the enclosed garden. The area is graced with a large and inviting swimming pool and a surrounding coral stone sun terrace. The sun terrace has loungers and a small umbrella table for poolside drinks. At one end of the pool the terrace extends to an alfresco dining area with an enchanting gazebo.

A charming split-level chalet style beach house built of bleached timber with a shingle roof; this darling vacation home has that charming weathered look. Re-designed by Ian Morrison, the Dudley Wood Beachouse Villa has a very romantic and rustic ambiance, which is due to the use and look of bleached timber in the property. Entry to this enchanted Barbados villa is at mid level. A small wooden bridge leads from the off road parking area into the main living area. This floor and the upper floor is built entirely of wood, with wooden floors, walls and an exposed shingle ceiling that have all been white washed. An informal sitting area is well furnished with white wicker seating and has cable TV and video, with large picture windows, and shutters that open to provide both pool and sea views (child safety bars have been installed for use as required).

This Caribbean villa's bedrooms are spacious and inviting. Two of the bedrooms are located off the side of the sitting room, the master bedroom with king size bed and TV, and a second bedroom with king size bed also. The master has an en suite bathroom with shower only whilst the other bedroom has tub/shower. A spiral staircase to the center of the living room connects all floors and leads up to a charming third bedroom with king size bed, located in the loft space. This has an en suite bathroom with tub/shower. All bedrooms are furnished with wicker and rattan, are air-conditioned and have ceiling fans. Taking the spiral staircase downstairs, you find a well-equipped and modern kitchen with marble fittings, as well as a small dining alcove, plus a powder room. The beach is literally steps away, through an arched gateway, with wall-mounted shower for rinsing off that leads out onto a wonderful stretch of golden sand with excellent swimming. Enjoy.
