Mayorine Cottage with Nevis Peak In The Background
Mayorine Cottage is a traditional Caribbean cottage in the Morningstar area on the island of Nevis close to Montpelier Inn and the Hermitage; and at the end of an old plantation road and no through traffic. It is a very private one-acre property with mature tropical plantings. The front of the cottage faces the southwest and the back of the cottage has spectacular views of Mount Nevis.
The older parts of the cottage are 130 years old. The owners, both artists, have preserved the look and integrity of that original construction while updating it with modern conveniences. .
The oldest part of the cottage is the center, which was the Bath Village general store. It was moved here in two pieces, placed on a new deck and then the porch unites the old and the new.
View from Porch
The fenced property has remnants of an old homestead and the gardener has tried to plant with this in mind. Mature sour orange and cashew trees, banana and papaya, along with a massive shady ginnup tree and flowers in bloom all year, bring nature within immediate reach.
Behind Mayorine cottage, Mount Nevis rises to 3100 feet. On the spacious porch, the hammock beckons or you can enjoy a soak in the clawfoot tub overlooking the garden.
Mayorine Cottage was featured on the Nevis Historical Society’s 2008 House and Garden Tour.

Travel
to Nevis:
Getting to Nevis is not particularly easy or inexpensive as it is a small airport and usually requires several connections from most places in the United States.
However, it is worth the trip as the island remains unspoiled and not overly touristy which is not the case with much of the Caribbean these days
We also have put together a booklet with many suggestions as to restaurants, activities, nightlife, etc. to help in planning your trip to Nevis.
