Nearby Attractions

John Smith’s Bay is about a 10 minute walk from the house and is a well-kept local secret- a quiet beach with deep soft pink sands that slope into quiet waters without the buffeting of heavy wave action or undertows. Smith’s Parish is adjacent to the Hamilton Parish enclave of the rich and famous in Tucker’s Town- you’ll enjoy touring this area with its magnificent homes, vast wooded hills and the sweeping golf courses.

The bus service by C55 runs every 30 minutes. There is a bus stop heading west to Hamilton just a couple of minutes walk from the property, across from Watch Hill Park. There is another bus stop down by Harrington Hundreds Grocery which is a fine food emporium, distinguishing themselves by offering a full delivery service including beer, wine and spirits. Bus stops heading east towards St. George’s or the airport are on the property’s side of South Road, across from Watch Hill Park. The Specialty Inn, a family style restaurant with delicious hamburgers, is about a 5 minutes ride down South Road at the crossroads of South Shore Road and Collector’s Hill. You may see movie stars here too: its down-home atmosphere belies the delicious local fare that is served here.

Flatts Village is also about a 5 minutes ride away: Rustico, one of the best Italian restaurants on the island is located in the village, as is Pizza Chef (which delivers). The 1926 Aquarium, small zoo and museum can also be found in Flatts: a delectable, small scale exploration of what the island is and has been in the past. The tidal wash under the little bridge at Flatts and the outlet from Harrington Sounds is always interesting to observe. Other good restaurants in the area would include Tom Moore’s Tavern, Ariel Sands and the dining at Pink Beach.

St. Mark’s Anglican church and St. Patrick’s Catholic church also about 5 minutes ride from here on South Road. The South Shore Road in this area heading east toward John Smith’s and Tucker’s Town (Mid Ocean Golf Club) is relatively quiet, as it’s not a major through road, so it’s great for walking along the coastal road admiring ocean views at every turn.

Spittal Pond Nature Reserve is only 5 minutes walk from the house and is an extraordinary park in that migratory birds flock to the marsh, sunk between the coastal hills and the ridge along which the South Road meanders. 

If you enjoy hiking, pick up the Davidson tour book featured on the website. Bermuda has an Arboretum, a Botanical Garden to investigate, and no end of fascinating out of the way areas most visitors never get to see. There are plenty of taxis at the airport- we have a few we like to refer you to because they have provided exceptional services to guests in the past- just ask us to refer you on to them. Tell driver that the house is on South Shore, Smith’s, short distance past John Smith’s Beach. You don’t need to use phone cards to call locally: use the house phone – rates are listed in the house information package. The house doesn’t get good cell reception anyway.

Paper towels etc. are all at the house and available at the grocery store as well. We also leave some general drug store items, such as band aids etc. in the cabinets. The owners leave an information package including brochures/maps, and you can get any additional information at the various tourist kiosks around the island. Tennis courts can be reserved at Grotto Bay Resort. Pomander Gate Tennis Club in Paget offers temporary memberships to visitors for $35 for the week. Courts can be booked Mon-Fri in mornings and possibly early afternoons which are non-peak times for the regular members.

We have a property manager who will run errands for you but please note: his charges are above and beyond the rental rates. If you leave belongings behind or want to arrange something extra to be delivered to the house, you will be presented with a bill for his hourly rates and services and it will be paid in cash on the spot, or deducted from your damage deposit. Please note that this house requires a lease and a deposit that includes a refundable $1,000.00/week damage security payment. The balance is paid 8 weeks prior to the tenancy commencing.
