Places to See in Barbados… and kid friendly!
As we get to explore this beautiful island more and more we are hoping to come up with a list of videos of favorite places to see and things to do here in Barbados. We took advantage of our time during Spring Break to visit a few stunning locations on the island with Hunte’s Gardens one of them.
From TripAdvisor:
You might hear this garden before you see it, its delightfully eccentric owner, Anthony Hunte BCH, plays classical music throughout the garden. This is the working end of old Castle Grant plantation, where sugar cane was once processed into syrup. Step through the gate and you’ll soon tread on the old weigh bridge, where loads of cane were tallied. Just past the old stone outbuildings, where statues lurk among exotic plants, you’ll find yourself on the lip of a great, hemispherical sinkhole in the limestone substrate. Steps lead down and paths branch out through an exquisite profusion of flowering plants, with towering trees around the edges. Both here and farther along the top are a series of small secret gardens, where you can sit to absorb the serenity and enjoy a picnic. Be sure to climb the upper level steps to Mr. Hunte’s house, a transformation of the old stables. He’ll invite you for refreshments-including his legendary rum punch or freshly made lemonade (for sale).
Mr. Hunte is incredibly welcoming and personable. We enjoyed chatting upon our entrance into the gardens and look forward to returning to this beautiful location again in the near future.
Thanks for watching!
