Cockade House Bennetts Bennetts

Available now! A truly unique private estate located east of Sandy Lane Estate, occupying approximately 5.5 acres of land and offering great sea views across the Green Monkey golf course. The original Oliver Messel home was renovated and enhanced by Timothy Oulton. The renovations, overseen by Michael Gomes have added 3 new cottages and there are a total of 6 ensuite bedrooms. The property is surrounded by lands of Sandy Lane and the owners allow a well known Cricket Academy to use the lower field of the property, complete with a professionally laid pitch and a Pavilion. The main house retains the beautiful Palladian style of Messel's design and consists of a formal sitting room leading to informal sitting and dining. From here the garden and sea views are the focal point. There is an extensive master suite, a private terrace opening to the swimming pool, the master bath opens to a tropical outdoor shower room. Also in the main house is a 2nd bedroom, an office with sea views and a modern kitchen. The large swimming pool and surrounding terrace looks onto a "folly" a fish pond with coral stone ruin, another of Messel's creations. There are 3 other cottages set within the beautifully landscaped gardens each with its own charming Barbadian design. Two of the cottages each have one bedroom, bathroom and kitchenette facilities, the third cottage has two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Other buildings house a laundry and staff room, separate gardener's cottage and a 2 car garage. The rental rate includes garden and pool maintenance.
