Colleton House, St. Peter, Saturday, January 7
Established in the mid 17th century, Colleton House exemplifies Barbados’ rich, tangled and often ironic history. Here you’ll learn about the impact of two remarkable men who owned this beautiful property—the first a slave trader who went on to help found a colony in South Carolina, and the last a remarkable geologist whose antithetical attitudes are celebrated in his extraordinarily diverse art collection, including a carriage house full of rarities from New Guinea. Expect to be astounded.
DIRECTIONS: Choose your favourite route to Speightstown and then go north along the coast on Highway 1B. After Six Men’s Village, the road swings uphill and to the right. Stay on it and look for our parking signs.
