Exciting times at Governors Estate may be a bit of an exaggeration for all of you – but it is for us ! This week we have all the work being done to get the generator installed and to power up all our houses here. That is all the rental houses – Yellow House, Sweetcorn House, Tops and Peach House […]
This week – news of a golf cart for Governors Estate and a visit to Harbour Island……. We decided to buy a golf cart for the Yellow House – so if you book now you will get use of the lovely 6 seater golf cart. It is perfect for a ride down to French Leave Beach – or more importantly […]

Halloween is a big excuse for a party and Halloween 2016 in Governors Harbour made the most of it. It started on Friday night with what is laughingly called Happy Hour at Bacchus Fine Foods – but of course it lasts way longer than an hour ! We loaned our skeleton pirate out to Angelika – it was good for […]
This is the story of a week in Eleuthera when nothing much is happening……. best news of the week is that Da Perk coffee shop is open again after a few weeks break – yippee ! Having said that of course we remain eternally grateful to Bacchus Fine Foods who did not close down at all. We were there to […]
Some weeks there is very little news to write about – Bob calls these blogs – much ado about nothing here in Governors Harbour ! Except of course to bring you up to date on what is happening at the various sites we are working on …… And there is plenty happening. At the old Duck Inn site we are […]
