A labour of love in the south of the island

About Leslie Longhurst

I am retired here (if I qualify) and so is my partner, Sheila. She is a fully qualified chef, and her last role was at M&S head office in the QC kitchen. I was a teacher, lastly, primary' I had a dream to design and build a house, which we are now living in. I's been a difficult journey, but now the fruits of our labours are clear for all to see and come and enjoy.

Leslie Longhurst purchased this Apartment in 2015

Why Leslie Longhurst chose Southfield

I love Art Deco, and what could be better than to see your own plan built? The area is great, and Sheila's family come from this parish, about 2 miles down the road. Fell in love with the island 20 years ago, and despite its faults, it is a great place to visit and indeed, live.

What makes this Apartment unique

The nearest place of the standard we away are offering would be Negril. Nothing I have seen at Treasure beach is as good - even villas for 6k a week. Fantastic view of the sea, near enough to enjoy, but far enough away should bad weather set in. Plenty of things to do no more than two hours away, though a car is a must. Solar hot water, cable, internet, great styling and décor, swimming pool, plunge pool, and hosts that just want you to have a great time.
