Fairview Inn

Description

Fairview Great House and Botanical Garden (located in the village of Boyds west of the Island)
This 18th century Great House has been authentically restored to its former glory with careful attention to historical detail. Step back in time as you wander through the dining room with its sixteen seat mahogany dinner table and antique silver service, as well as the Historical Room that chronicles the fascinating past of Fairview. Step on to the master bedroom veranda and enjoy the breathtaking panoramic vista of the Caribbean Sea, South-East Peninsula and St. Kitts’ sister island of Nevis. Meander down to the cobble stone courtyard where you will discover the original kitchen building with its volcanic stone and brick oven, and the original bathing room with its large sun-warmed volcanic stone bath. A bit further you’ll find the stone cellar where the gift shop is located, offering local pottery, art and other unique gifts. Then take an aromatic, leisure stroll through the Botanical Garden filled with flowers, trees and shrubs, identified with signage providing interesting information about each. Don’t forget to keep an eye out for the monkeys venturing through the property to fill their bellies from the multitude of fruit trees on this tropical oasis.
