Description
Harlyn’s self-catering flat which is attached to the owner’s charming old 19th century home, offers beautiful views of the South Atlantic Ocean, late evening sunsets – with rare siting of the “green flash” – and the night sky is always lovely to behold.
HARLYN SELF CATERING FLAT, established in 1989, has entertained several hundred visitors//tenants over the years, since then.
The comfortable, homely atmosphere, has often enticed folk to make return visits. A very pleasing testament to its ongoing reputation.
“HARLYN” is located just off the main Half Tree Hollow road, some 2 miles and less than a 10-minute drive down to Jamestown and some 20 – 30 minutes up into the beautiful countryside. An approximate 30-minute drive will get you to the St. Helena Airport in Longwood.
This location is also ideal for going on various Post Box Walks and walking the famous (699 steps) Jacob’s Ladder as well as viewing Ladder Hill Fort, overlooking Jamestown and much more – all to help the visitors discover the lifestyle and culture of St Helena Island.
The Flat offers a spacious Bathroom fitted with a bath shower toilet and storage facilities.
A large bedroom has a double and a single bed. Very adequate wardrobe, and storage space, caters easily, for 2 persons for both personal and household belongings.
A landline telephone is also in this room. No Wi-Fi is available but a strong 4G connection is possible.
The recent building extension has greatly enhanced the “open plan kitchen and lounge area, all fitted with the necessary “ mod cons” and provides all the essentials required for a comfortable homely stay.
A television set is in the lounge area.
Unfortunately, this 1826-year-old house is not wheelchair friendly.
The Front Door of the Flat leads directly onto the large verandah of the Proprietor’s residence, where everyone is free to relax ……. and watch the world go by!
Tropical trees and shrubs surround the small flower garden, providing a little “oasis” in this somewhat warmer area of the island.
