Description of Drambuie:
Built in the 1940's by the Duke of Marlborough, Drambuie is a slice of old Jamaica when lively drawing room conversation and gracious service ruled the day in an extraordinary private setting. Today this remarkable hideaway retains many exquisite original features plus contemporary amenities of air conditioned bedrooms, cable televisions and Internet access ~ the best of both worlds from two centuries.
Drambuie is exquisitely furnished with Chinese rugs, original art, 1930's French posters, carved sculpture from Jamaica, England, China and Africa; Chippendale and Queen Anne treasures ~ complemented by casual wicker verandah furnishings. A few steps across a grassy lawn are the large pool, umbrella tables and shaded luncheon pavilion.
The legendary Mr. P has worked at Drambuie for four decades. By 7:00 each morning, he opens the tall French doors and serves throughout the day with classic grace and style. Chef Nicoy indulges Drambuie guests in many specialties including Seafood Royale (fish, lobster and shrimp in cream sauce), Quesadillas, Roti, Lobster Thermador, Sweet & Sour Pork, Key Lime Pie, Banana Pudding, Crepes ~ and artistic presentation at every meal, served on Wedgwood bone china.
Cut stone walls brought from England 200 years ago as ship's ballast comprise the 18-inch walls of the Main House. Vaulted ceilings are 16 feet high. Floors are cool tiles from England, Mexico and South America. The Main House consists of the Great Room with 100-year old pool table, large screen television, VCR and sound system; inlaid games table for chess, checkers or backgammon; and comfortable sitting area. French doors open to a 330' wrap-around stone verandah furnished with al fresco dining tables, wicker sitting area, tempting hammock and lawn leading to the pool. Through tall mahogany doors is the large master bedroom suite. Also in this building are the powder room, butler's pantry and kitchen.
A tiled path leads 30 feet from the Main House to The Cottage. Here are three more bedrooms which can be connecting for parents and children or kept private via locking doors. A furnished verandah fronts The Cottage. Nine steps down from The Cottage is the fifth bedroom, an intimate hideaway for two.
The Drambuie staff are delighted to take guests on property tours to explain how the estate operates and to point out the many varieties of tropical flora, fauna and birds that thrive here.
Drambuie's staff and owners love their dogs, free to run the property if you wish. They are calm, friendly and gentle with children. On request, the dogs can be kept in their large fenced yard all day during your vacation.
Drambuie is an exquisite wedding and honeymoon location. For large groups, family reunions and weddings, Drambuie can be combined with neighboring Highland House just down the lane. Walking time is 12 minutes; drive time is three minutes. Combining these two remarkable estates creates an 11-bedroom compound on 52 acres with combined staff of sixteen.
