O
Rýchle fakty: Pôvodných 20 izieb bolo zreštaurovaných s dobovým nábytkom a obsahuje zbierku 30 kusov čínskeho porcelánu z 18. storočia. Legenda hovorí, že otrokyňa Annie Palmer, prezývaná „Biela bosorka", stále straší na chodbách domu 200 rokov po svojej záhadnej smrti.
Zaujímavosti: Bočná terasa ponúka panoramatický výhľad 180 stupňov na Karibské more, kde neustály vietor prináša vôňu jazmínu a zvuk vĺn narážajúcich na útesy dole. V pivnici sa nachádza podzemná kuchyňa z 18. storočia, ktorá si zachovala pôvodné stopy sadzí z ohnísk používaných na varenie jedál pre pánov plantáže.
Insiderské tipy
- Wear comfortable shoes and bring water, as the steep climb up to the house can be tiring under the Jamaican sun.
- The best spot for photos is the west terrace at 4 p.m., when the golden light bathes the coral stone facade.
- Avoid Sundays, when cruise ships dock at Montego Bay port and the mansion is crowded with tourists.
- Ask the guide to show you the secret entrance to the escape tunnel that connects the house to the sea, a detail that many visitors miss.
