Get a Luxurious, Old-World Mediterranean Feel at Scottland Villa Above Smuggler’s Cove
Nestled discretely in the lush hillside of Tortola’s Northwestern coast, surrounded by banana, lime and coconut trees, overlooking the white sand of Smuggler’s Cove – Scottland House truly harmonizes Mediterranean style with Caribbean flare. This gorgeous two-story, two-bedroom masterpiece showcases natural wood wherever possible – giving this quaint, yet luxurious villa, an old-world Mediterranean feel, right here in the Caribbean.
Lower-level accommodations include a comfortable living room, decorated with local prints and artifacts. This welcoming area lets in plenty of natural light, as it opens fully to the patio, private pool, and magnificent views. Take advantage of this substantial outdoor space by relaxing poolside, firing up the built-in BBQ, and dining on the heavy wooden circular table. Pool measurements (25′ x 8’9″ x 4’8′ deep). Scottland House is home to a well-equipped country kitchen, adjacent to the living room, through a wide open doorway. The second bedroom, located downstairs, offers a queen bed and half-bath, and is accessed by a short flight of steps from the rear of the kitchen. This bedroom has AC and its shower is outdoors.
Upstairs awaits a romantic master bedroom suite, with vaulted ceilings and a king size four-poster bed. French doors open wide to a small balcony, exposing views of nearby Islands like Jost Van Dyke, Sandy Cay and several others. This room includes a walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom, where a refreshing rinse in the natural stone shower is the perfect beginning or end to any day. The Master Suite has AC and a SmartTV. Somewhat hidden behind the master suite, is a private tiled courtyard with table and chairs, and a garden path to a pavilion-style gazebo with a perfectly swaying double hammock.
A 15-minute walk (or quick drive) brings you to Smuggler’s Cove, where you can read on the beach, enjoy snorkeling the crystal clear Caribbean waters, or even imbibe, as friendly locals are sure to be serving cold beverages and hot food. Your neighbor to the East, Long Bay, offers a mile of white, sandy beach in a beautiful resort community as well.
With a quiet, romantic aura, Scottland House is an elegant and relaxing escape for honeymooners or for couples with their children.

BVI Traveller was created in September of 2017 to help tourism in the British Virgin Islands recover from the devastation wrought by Hurricane Irma.
To that end, we met our goals. In the past 7 years there have been over 1.2 million visits to the website and over 3 million pages have been viewed. There are over 1,000 pages on the site featuring news posts and detailed listings on all hotels, villas, restaurants and sailing charters located in the BVI. The BVI Government and many business, hotels, villas and sailing charters have all agreed that the site “moved the needle on tourism” after Irma.
The site, however, has run its course. It has served its purpose by bringing visitors and local businesses together to rebuild the tourist industry and it is now time to shut down operations for good.
I want to thank everyone for your help and support.
