Mary's Hill Lodge - Reader Reports & Opinion

Amazing House! Amazing People!   

Steve Johsnon from U.K. visited in February 2007 and awarded  

Mary's Hill Lodge is the perfect retreat after a tough day relaxing on one of Tobago's perfect paradise beaches.

The lodge is in a perfect location, the best beach for snorkelling in Tobago (Mount Irvine) just 5 minutes in one direction and Scarborough with it's famous colourful saturday market 5 minutes in the other direction.

I can't wait to go back again and relax in the peaceful surroundings!

I would recommend people of ages to visit Tobago and stay in Mary's Hill Lodge.

The Perfect Location For A Real Caribbean Getaway.   

Andrew Thomas from U.K. visited in February 2007 and awarded  

We loved the house, built on a slope with an open veranda. We had hummingbirds and parrots on the door step and at night fireflies in the garden. A magical few days.

It was always a lovely house to return to after a long day out. We felt really at home and very comfortable.

Laura and Louis have built a house that is memorable, in a location that's perfect for getting about from, and close enough to Mt Irvine bay so that a drive for a swim and a beer seems very close.

We have stayed in lots of houses and hotels around the world and feel that this ranks as one of the best. Totally unprententious but with character that made for a memorable two weeks stay.

We loved it..

Comments On Holiday In August.

August 2006

Another great holiday in your fabulous house. we love the living room / verandah where we can experience all the sights, sounds, weather and wildlife of Tobago.

The new moon rising, the stars like diamonds in the sky, the glow bugs twinkling in the trees like fairy lights while the resident bats from the tool cupboard swoop around you. The garden is growing beautifully and we sampled the enormous creamy avocados, lemon bananas and mangos.

Jenny's river garden is located to the right of the steps by the water pipe, plants we collected on our trek along the river to the waterfall with Mark, I hope it survives!

From the verandah we saw mot mots, blue tanagers, palm tanagers, grass quits, silver beaked tanagers, common black hawk , banana quits, house wren, red – crowned woodpecker, tropical king birds, mockingbirds, a bare eyed thrush building a nest, the resident doves and green parrrokets. We heard the whistling frogs, the bleating goats, the clicking gheccos and the numerous bird songs. The angelic soulful singing from the church and hugh 3"! brown flying beetle flying in at night.

Beaches and swimming, especially snorkeling are brilliant!! A huge stingray swam beside us, close enough to touch, at Mt Irvine bay just in front of the cafe in the shallow water by the rocks, we could hardly believe it!! We saw loads of other wonderful fish – rainbow parrotfish, french angelfish, numerous blue angelfish and many many more. Loved the pelicans fishing off the sea.

Did some liming at a big party at Mt Irvine with brothers with vision djing. Met Pablo, Jason and other lifeguards.

Al in all a wonderful holiday. Thanks so much.

Love Peter and Jenny
