Bus transportation into the capital city of Hamilton or to the former capital, St. Georges takes 15 minutes on Route 11, one of the island's most frequent services.  The bus stop is a three-minute walk from the house.  Mopeds can be rented from a shop called 'Wheels'.  Shopping in the neighbourhood includes a supermarket at the Shelly Bay Plaza and a small convenience store at the gas station at the end of Radnor Road.  One half mile away there is another convenience store open until midnight.  Grocery stores also sell liquor, wines and beer.  Dry cleaners, a pizza parlor and a Post Office are nearby.  Flatts Village is five minutes away by bus (and is delightful village) with nice places to eat (the Palmetto Bay Hotel is particularly pleasant), gift and other shops, and the Aquarium and Zoo which are well worth a visit.  Sports activities include tennis courts (which can be booked at reasonable rates) at Grotto Bay, which is five minutes away by bus.
Golfers will enjoy the St. Georges Club and there are numerous public courses.  Hiking is enjoyable at Ferry Reach and St. Davids Head, two of the larger and more interesting parks.  There is also Spittal Pond Bird Sanctuary and endless coastline areas to walk.  Consult the enclosed map for clearly marked areas.  Swimming and snorkeling are good on most beaches.  However, Shelly Bay Beach five minutes from "The Bed and Breakfast", is very safe, never has an undertow (as do many of the more turbulent South Shore beaches) and the caves around the headland offer excellent snorkeling.  Tobacco Bay in St. Georges is a great beach year round - sheltered and with marvelous numbers of fish.  Diving, sailing and windsurfing are all available at Grotto Bay and Castle Harbour, which are nearby.
The old town of St. Georges features many attractions. Every Tuesday night when the cruise ships arrive there are vendors in the Town Square and the shops stay open until 9 pm.  There are walking tours daily and a special re-enactment of the old ducking stool - a punishment reserved for nagging or gossiping women from a long time ago! Every street offers wonderful old houses perched right on the road allowance or set deep in lush gardens. Many buildings are old, dating from the 1600's and 1700's.Development in the old town has been restricted so one has the pleasure of savoring an historical setting unmarred by inappropriate development.
There are museums, old government buildings and meeting halls, and handsome forts to explore in St.Georges, as well as the replica of the small ship that rescued the early settlers- this is a particular hit with children, we find...The oldest church in the Western hemisphere is the truly lovely St.Peters Church with its exceptional timbered interiors, handsome collections of silver and furniture, and the flanking graveyard that holds so many of the island's earliest settlers.
Towels are changed every other day and sheets twice weekly.No personal laundry facilities are available at the house, but there is a laundromat nearby.No maid service is provided.
