Romney Manor

Category: Houses/Mansions
Location: St. Kitts

Fodor's Review:

The ruins of this somewhat restored house (reputedly once the property of Thomas Jefferson) and surrounding cottages that duplicate the old chattel-house style are set in 6 acres of glorious gardens, with exotic flowers, an old bell tower, and an enormous, gnarled 350-year-old saman tree (sometimes called a rain tree). Inside, at Caribelle Batik, you can watch artisans hand-printing fabrics by the 2,500-year-old Indonesian wax-and-dye process known as batik. Look for signs indicating a turnoff for Romney Manor near Old Road.
