Guest Report

[Lara & Mark]

Ginny and Kelly have a wonderful home and gardens, just what you expect a yoga retreat to be! We arrived on Christmas Day and G&K were there at the airport to greet us, along with sorting out our hire car in advance, it could not have been simplier and we couldn't have been better looked after. When we arrived at their home we were lucky in that we had a choice of rooms, as well as the self contained apartment, there are a few to choose from and they are all lovely, comfortable and homely. It's an absolute priviledge to stay in this beautiful home. Kelly's breakfasts and home-made bread and cakes are legendary. Sadly we never managed to get up in time for yoga but hopefully next time. We managed to sight see, play golf and dive. The golf at Mountain Irvine is pretty good although Tobago Plantations is also recommended but we didn't get the chance to play. We would recommend visiting Speyside for the diving at this end of the island (around Little Tobago) is better and the reef more preserved than at the Crown Point end of the Island. We used Aquamarine Diving School and they were very professional, though fairly chilled out but such is the way of the Carribean. If you do visit Jemma's Treehouse \ Seafood restaurant then do take your own alcohol, particularly if you want to sample the best lobster with it! There are a number of other restaurants and bars which G&K recommend and all are good and reasonable too. Of particular note is the Salsa Kitchen on the major crossroad between Wilson Road and Scarbrough, we had a wonderful Tapas meal there. We would definitely go back to Tobago and hopefully next time we'd manage to get up in time for Yoga!!
