It is our absolute pleasure to introduce ourselves as the McCowan family from the UK the owners & creators of WEST ROCK VILLAS ST. JAMES. West Rock is truly an authentic place & offers something a little different - providing a quaint and quiet oasis away from sun seeking crowds, surrounded by nature with long distance ocean views. They are a little quirky and full of character, just like us! With only a handful of people staying at any one time, West Rock provides a romantic getaway or total comfort for individuals & families, and provides a great base for exploring everything Barbados has to offer. We have a small team of wonderful people working hard to keep West Rock looking lovely and looking after our guests. We invite you to come & experience our little self catering cottages & sincerely hope that you enjoy your stay.

A secret spirit lifting escape overlooking the West Coast of Barbados. Nestled amongst nature away from busy areas & crowds. A small collection of six charming, stylish and characterful 1 and 2 bedroom self catering cottages. Open floor plans, air-conditioning in the bedrooms only with comfy white four poster beds, en-suite shower rooms and covered porches. Natural calming decor with accents of linen, rope, coral & driftwood promoting a fresh coastal feel. Shared small pool with sundeck, cool tropical breezes & amazing views. John Allsop the noted Barbadian Architect, designed West Rock with relaxed barefoot living in mind - traditionally inspired Chattel type villas with a modern twist - west facing with excellent natural light & outstanding long distance views across nature to the ocean beyond! Breath in the fresh island air & soak up the far reaching views Experience the sights, smells & sounds of nature Be captivated by the sunsets! As the night draws in watch the fireflies dance whilst the stars light up the sky! PLEASE NOTE: West Rock offers something a little different than a hotel/resort, we are intended for a more modern self catering small villa holiday experience. In keeping with the natural aspects there is only a ceiling fan in the living/kitchen areas with the separate bedroom/s offering air-conditioning in addition to a ceiling mounted fan, due to the small nature of the properties. We also recommend hiring a car to access amenities in nearby Holetown, but taxis are readily available. There is a path leading down to the main coast road from the villas, it takes around 10/15 minutes (depending how fast you walk) and here you can catch a bus north/south or access Alleyne's Bay Beach with sun loungers, water sports and a beach bar. There is a restaurant within a 5 minute walk located on the adjacent 'Sugar Hill' estate called 'The Deck' is accessible to anyone with gorgeous views and a varied menu along with lovely views.

'West Rock' is located in a very private quiet area away from main thoroughfare traffic Ideal for individuals, couples and families who prefer to be away from all the crowds, but still close enough to access the fine dining and amazing beaches of the West Coast. Please note, that we do not have 'manned' security, but we are located on a private elevated spot in a premium and quiet neighbourhood, immediately adjacent to the prestigious 'Sugar Hill' estate and near to 'Royal Westmoreland', just in front of the new 'Westmoreland Hills' development of villas. Only around a 5 minute drive down to 'Holetown' (the main town on the West Coast), where you will find a newly built 'Massy' Supermarket offering a wide range of goods, a pharmacy & a large selection of 'Waitrose' options and a 'Starbucks'. In Holetown there is also is a 24 hour Medical Centre, banks, duty free shopping, police station & fuel The Limegrove Lifestyle Centre is also located nearby with a cinema, high end shops & a selection of 'cool' foodie haunts! A 10/15 minute walk down a path from our villas through 'Reids Gap' to the main coast road where you can access the gorgeous Alleyne's Bay beach a great place to spend the day with loungers, umbrellas for hire, water sports and a beach bar. The famous Lone Star restaurant is also located on Alleyne's Bay Beach, famous for it's celebrity clientele! Take a road trip through the winding country lanes and seek out the best views, or head over to the east coast for some dramatic and spectacular coastal scenery.
