The Basics

Romney Manor is a regular stop on most island tours and it’s easy to spend a few hours here exploring the various sights and attractions. At the enchanting Caribelle Batik, shop for gorgeous hand-dyed batik fabrics and apparel and watch women artisans at work, demonstrating their signature batik dyeing process. Before loading up on their wares, meander over to the 6-acre (2.4-hectare) botanical gardens where you may have a seat under a majestic 400-year-old saman tree. Next to Wingfield Estate, inspect the ancient Carib petroglyphs carved on large lava rocks, thought to be honoring the fertility gods. Tours that include a stop at the Romney Manor may include additional stops in Basseterre such as Bloody River and Brimstone Hill Fortress to learn about the island’s colonial history. For an added adventure, hop on an ATV to explore the island's rolling countryside.
