Peach And Quiet - Description
Description
The Peach is unique. It represents a successful combination of tropical ambiance, courteous and considerate management, characteristic Caribbean free form architecture, and meticulously prepared and presented cuisine. Located on the South Coast, but away from the merry-go-round of the tourist intensive areas as well as children, the Peach has carved its
niche as a location for the adult traveler who appreciates ambiance over activity, tradition over trends, and fulfillment over exhaustion, hence the name Hotel Peach and Quiet. Its garden or ocean view rooms provide comfortable accommodations in harmony with its tropical setting.
Great care is taken by its on site owners in ensuring that their guests enjoy all services and activities available, should the guests so desire. Weekly round table dinners may feature conversations led by politicians, airline pilots, authors, or other creative individuals. Transportation can be arranged for guided walking tours to estates, gardens, historical ancient island settlements, or to the location of the Barbados gun, the testing site for what was to have been the Iraqi super weapon. Mrs. Shaw, the resident owner, has a strong sense of knowing how to provide the right amount of activity, culture, cuisine, and compatibility to her guests individually.
Wherever one stays in Barbados, the Peach is a location to be sought out for relaxation and inspiration. There is no greater level of service provided by any hotel or guest house, in any more gracious fashion by any more considerate hosts. If the purpose of your holiday is relaxation and fulfillment, the Peach is the place, without question.

Peach and Quiet, Barbados hotel review Visited: December 2005
Posted by ebt
A few months after returning home, I am still amazed that we found such a peaceful haven in Barbados.
The rooms are spacious and comfortable with good-sized terraces or balconies. There are no TVs or radios, which is very refreshing if the aim is to "get away from it all" and relax. Books abound in the rooms, and lounge area and there are plenty of quiet places to sit and enjoy a good read or the company of other guests.
The lounges and dining area are all open-air which makes the most of the wonderful Barbados weather and starry nights. There are lovely little personal touches in the decor all around the property.
The food is beautifully prepared, and the breakfast choice is extensive and includes wonderful bread freshly baked by the chef.
The honor bar where guests simply help themselves to drinks and mark down what they have is a lovely idea.
The pool beside the ocean is perfect and well-maintained. It is well-stocked with comfortable loungers and chairs. Additionally, there are gazebos nearby which provide shade. In front of the pool there is a sea rock swimming pool where it is possible to snorkel. Although, the hotel is situated on a rocky promontory, there are a couple of small beaches to either side and a much larger beach a little farther to the east within easy walking distance. For those, so inclined, there is wind-surfing, etc. very close by.
This was the most relaxed and peaceful hotel experience we have ever had. The owners, Margaret and Adrian, unobtrusively run the property to the highest standards of customer service. As well as Adrian conducting walking tours, they are unstintingly helpful and informative and the other guests we spoke to, like us, were most appreciative of the efforts they make to assure this beautiful property is a little piece of heaven for their guests.
A wonderful place to wind down and enjoy the beauty and serenity of this world, Peach and Quiet will be our first choice on any return trip to Barbados.

We just returned from another wonderful week at Peach and Quiet. It was truly relaxing, and the food and ambiance cannot be beat.
Margaret and Adrian always do such a super job at making our stay an enjoyable one - from organizing outings to booking reservations for a dinner out. The food here was so good though, you really won't want to eat out!
This accommodation is highly recommended if you are looking for great value and a place that is a lot out of the ordinary. We will definitely be going back!

Peach and Quiet is everything you need and nothing you do not. 
Peach and Quiet, Barbados hotel review Visited: October 2003
Posted by lisageorge
If you’re seeking a quiet haven from civilization while remaining very much civilized, you should consider a stay at the Peach and Quiet. Our stay in late October 2003 was one of the most serene and yet most affordable trips we’ve had in years.
We felt like honored guests of Adrian and Margaret Loveridge’s four-acre piece of heaven. The Loveridges seem have an almost preternatural instinct about the needs of each guest.
When we wanted to enjoy the view of the ocean and do a bit of snorkeling, it seemed as if the view and the natural pool were all our own. But when we wanted explore and learn about Barbados, Margaret scheduled everything we needed (even taking care to help us schedule our excursions to avoid sunburn).
And Adrian was a wealth of history and information about the country. A traditional beach was just a five-minute walk, and that meant we could get there quickly, but there weren’t loads of other tourists crowding us.
The honor bar was a nice touch for those who prefer not to have a costumed waiter serving $10 drinks. Just mix them yourself, mark the sheet, and you’ve paid little more for a cocktail than you would in your own home. The meals were wonderful and always included a vegetarian option.
The overall property and rooms were spacious and elegantly sparse in a tropical way. We found the scents of frangipani trees and handmade soaps enticing our senses rather than the blare of a radio, television, or telephone. There were even small collections of books in each room which prompted during our stay a literary discussion at dinner with other guests. (Bonus for us: no children are allowed at the Peach.)
We took advantage of the Summer Breeze package which included two days car rental, breakfast every day, several dinners, a snorkel tour, and dinner at Carambola, one of the island’s best restaurants. It was an incredible deal by any standards, but we felt like we were living like kings on usually-expensive Barbados.
If you want roaring air conditioning, a screaming “social director” leading a limbo line, and a tacked-on charge for every little thing, go to one of the big resorts on the West Coast. Or better yet, just go to Orlando. If you want to chill out and enjoy true island life, consider Peach and Quiet.

This place is a real "peach"!
Peach and Quiet, Barbados hotel review Visited: May 2003
Posted by barbhalsall
I spent one wonderful, relaxing week at Peach and Quiet and have already booked to go back next year.
It was a charming, comfortable, simple, but nice accommodation. It was away from the crowds and not on the beach, but the rock pool out front had the most amazing snorkeling. There were two beaches just a short walk away - Silver Rocks and Silver Sands.
We also did the package and not only found it to be a great value, but it made for a very easy holiday. There was an honor bar which was a very welcome touch. The food was delicious and the owners, Margaret and Adrian, could not have been more helpful.
They were at present preparing all of the outside surfaces for painting, but that did not bother us. We will look forward to seeing an even more beautiful "Peach" when we return! It was an excellent location for real rest and relaxation. It is highly recommended if you are looking for something a little out of the ordinary!
