Olveston House

Montserrat


The former winter home of the late Sir George Martin is now an utterly delightful inn run by the affable trio of Margaret, Sarah and Carol. There are six charming rooms (three with air-con, three with access to the wraparound porch), and lots of memorabilia and photographs of famous musicians. The hugely popular attached restaurant opens for dinner each night.
