About this property

Historic 1780’s Beach House with Large Veranda! Nestled on Cambridge Beach!

Kitchen with oversized stove and oven, 2 x large fridges & two dishwashers as well as all the kitchen &equipment you will need to prepare a gourmet meal. Two grocery stores are a 5 minutes’ walk down Cambridge Road. Bus stop is 5 minutes’ walk. Air conditioning in all bedrooms. Stainless BBQ, large enough for a meal for 12 people. 2 x 55 led TV'S. Outdoor showers. Comfortably decorated and renovated with all the modern conveniences, the gracious old Bermuda home is a wonderful venue for a family reunion, or a getaway for friends who want to enjoy a tropical setting.


West End: Interesting places to see in the vicinity would include Dockyard. The extraordinary installation features a collection of spectacular buildings erected for navy re-provisioning in the very early 1800?s. The Maritime Museum out at Dockyard on Ireland Island has fascinating displays of items from Bermuda’s extraordinarily colorful past, fully restored. The Commissioners House is an iron structure with the most commanding view of the island to be seen anywhere- from end to end. Other handsome buildings now house art galleries, museums, cafes, artist’s workshops, theatres and pubs as well as a major ferry stop that will whisk you into Hamilton and on to St. Georges. Heading east by road towards Hamilton, you will be charmed with the town of Somerset- it has a post office and pharmacy, nice places to dine and little shops where you can re-provision while admiring the views and the mangrove-edged beach. Ely’s Harbour at Somerset Bridge has a small marina where you can rent boats and explore.

Railway trail / Restaurants: The Railway Trail is nearby as well, and offers a peek into Old Bermuda, as the trail wends away from the main road and past some fascinating old homes and farms with jaw dropping views. The grand beaches at Horseshoe, Warwick Long Bay and Elbow are a short bus or moped ride away and some are serviced public beaches with cafes, beach chair and umbrella rentals available. The Watford Bridge terminal is half a mile walk away. The local Supermarket is close by as well and spirits are sold until 9pm, and groceries can be purchased there until midnight or at the 24 hour store just 2 min walk. Casual dining can be enjoyed at the “Frog and Onion Pub” Bonefish Grill, Amicci's 10 minutes away at Dockyard or next door at the resort at Breezes on the outdoor beach restaurant. There are several take out options in walking distance right here in the village, and or you can get delivery service

Boat rentals: There is a boat rental a minute walk down the street at the dock in Mangrove Bay. Lasers, kayaks, Boston Whalers and all the snorkel gear you’ll need for rent is available there.They have experienced staff ready to advise you on the best cruising itinerary for the water sports adventure of your choice, with great fishing spots, waterside restaurants, ship wreck snorkeling, island picnicing and all kinds of water toys and more

We recommend Oleander Cycles as they have a kiosk next door at the Cambridge Beach Resort and Spa.

The house has two plugs to fast charge the electric rental cars, and I'll provide more info on transport and rentals once you've booked.

Best Holiday Ever
The property was even better than it looked and in a great location. Ben was brilliant, very welcoming and went above and beyond to help us. We had a mixed group of friends and my parents (age range 50 -75) but it was all perfect. House is very spacious, well appointed and its easy to get around and the beach is literally just out the back of the property. Couldn't have asked for a better place and will definitely be back. All 12 people from the party are looking to return! Fabulous!

Ben the owner is wonderful. He went out of his way to help us any way he could. Gave great tips before our trip and even took us to the grocery store in his car so we could do the initial shopping order. He also even offered to take us again midweek. When our flight got cancelled due to weather he let us come back to the house for another night! Really great property manager. The house is big and most of the bathrooms have been updated. The big table on the porch is where we ate every meal. A quick walk to the beach was easy and the restaurant next store was great too. We had a wonderful time!
