GIBBS BAY INN, Barbados - NEW Guesthouse Hotel, just opened on the West Coast March 2011

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) March 3, 2011 -- A former mansion of Oliver Messel fame has been turned into a guesthouse on the west coast of Barbados. Gibbs Bay Inn is tucked away behind some ancient trees and is invisible from the coast road and does not even have a sign up.

The Inn is across the road from Gibbs Beach in St Peter with its own (again hidden) beach path that runs discreetly between two beach houses. The Mail on Sunday awarded a place for Gibbs Beach, in its Top Ten Best Beaches.

Described by the family who run the guesthouse as an easy, simple and relaxed family Inn with plenty of Caribbean charm “We are certainly not right for everyone,” say owners Toby and Karen, who live in with their own children and their small dog Jack. “We can’t compete with the beachfront hotel or the all inclusive resort, but for those seeking an alternative holiday we hope that they will consider a booking with us.”

Gibbs Bay Inn has the feel of a 1920’s Plantation house party, with traditional afternoon tea and a house cook baking cakes for, and with, the children in the pantry, while the monkeys in the mahogany tree tease the puppy.

The mansion is stunning with colonial style verandas and open spaces giving a new definition to inside outside living. Every morning the porter carries sun loungers onto the beach and the maids attend to the spacious bedrooms. Gibbs Bay Inn is a little known, sensibly priced gem.
