About this property

Charming Private Cottage by the Beach

Sea View Mews is a newly-renovated cottage in a lush, private garden setting, just a few steps from the beach at Cambridge Beaches. It has one queen bedroom with en suite bathroom, fully equipped kitchen with gas stove, microwave, dishwasher and coffee machine, a large living/dining room, a beautiful walled garden with sunken dining area and BBQ, outdoor shower and direct access to the beach. There is a charging point for electric cars and plenty of parking. There is super-fast Wifi, perfect for your work-from-home respite in Bermuda. We have incorporated green technology - solar power and water filtration system for a comfortable, guilt-free stay!

There is a bus stop and supermarket a short walk away, as well as the other amenities of Somerset Village. Guests can use the restaurants and spa at Cambridge Beaches hotel, a short walk through the garden gate. You can also rent water sports equipment, mopeds and electric cars close by.

You will have complete private use of the cottage and garden during your stay.

We have Abby the Dalmatian and Sammy the Cocker Spaniel on the property, so you must be dog-friendly :). They can be kept out of the private mews garden if you wish. We welcome you to bring your dog with you, but have to say no to cats.

We provide beach towels, beach chairs and umbrellas, snorkelling equipment, hair dryer, iron and ironing board, washer and dryer. There is air conditioning and fast WiFi (500mbps) and redundant capacity with two separate networks - one fibre, one wireless.

We are located in the heart of Somerset, in a private 2-acre property set back from the quiet Cambridge Road. The historic Naval Dockyard and the South Shore beaches are an easy bus ride away, or you can nip there on your moped or Twizy. Ferries run from nearby Watford Bridge to Hamilton in the morning and afternoon and from Dockyard all day.

We provide bicycles you can use to explore the area, including the nearby tranquil Railway Trail. We are both keen cyclists and can provide recommendations for places to visit by bicycle.

Jonah is an artist who has his studio nearby and you are welcome to visit. Jonah's work can be seen at Jonah-art

Sea View has an interesting history of creative people who have lived there which can be seen on our website at Sea View Bermuda.

We are happy to answer any questions you have about the property or Bermuda in general and will do whatever we can to make sure you have a wonderful stay.

Jo Stanton & Jonah Jones

A wonderful getaway in Bermuda. Beautiful design, privacy with all the amenities. One can relax in the enclosed garden or walk 50 meters to a stunning beach. The hosts are very kind, accessible and helpful. And we love the company of the dogs.

Staying at Jo and Jonah’s cottage was a joy. This is a meticulously restored and generously proportioned one bedroom haven for a vacationing couple or individual. The house is technically attached to the main building of this gorgeous estate, but this extremely comfortable, immaculately cleaned place was entirely private and quiet. It also offers a beautiful spacious enclosed garden — solely for the occupants’ use— with comfortable seating and tables for outdoor dining, which we enjoyed every day. And there is nothing between the place and the beach but a quiet walk of less than two minutes duration. The swimming was wonderful. And because of the location, on a very narrow strip of the island, you can watch both sunrises and sunsets over the water — the two shores are five minutes walk apart. Three charming dogs became friends. We very much hope to return.

We arrived by taxi in dreadful weather but Jo was there to greet us. As we had torrential rain the next day Jonah very kindly drove us to the supermarket for provisions which was greatly appreciated. The accommodation was simply beautiful and very comfortable with everything required, decorated with Jonah's stunning art work. The property is set in beautiful gardens which we really enjoyed and listening to the birds as well as visits from the three dogs. It also backs on to a beautiful beach. We were able to use the facilities at Cambridge Beach Resort next door also. The owners were always available if required.We would definitely recommend a stay here and certainly hope to visit again. We were very sad to leave.

We just returned from our third lengthy stay at Sea View Mews, a lovely one-bedroom unit situated a short walk from Mangrove Bay and Somerset Village. We keep returning because the rental property is magical—a comfortable abode with its own enclosed garden, which is itself contained by the expansive and beautifully maintained grounds of the main house. A two-minute walk from the bottom of your garden takes you to a gorgeous beach and splendid sea views. We are grateful to Jo and Jonah for being such wonderful hosts, and for creating such a wonderful refuge from the Canadian winter.

We had a perfect two week vacation at the mews cottage. It was very private and peaceful and yet our hosts, Jo and Jonah were always available when we had questions or needed advice. The property is beautiful and the rooms of the cottage are very generously sized with comfortable furnishings. The beach is just a few steps from the back gate and is very private. There is a very good grocery store and several bus stops within a short walk. We travelled the whole length of Bermuda from the dockyards to St George’s using the buses and ferries and enjoyed all of it. This cottage is now our go to spot in Bermuda.

The whole experience beginning to end was a wonderful stay at the Mews. The hosts are kind and helpful. They have three well behaved dogs, we miss their morning visits. The rooms were clean and the place is in great condition. Its a short walk away from the beach and close to the grocery stores. Thank you Jo and Jonah, look forward to returning someday.

Absolutely the best find in Bermuda, will go back. Many thanks to Jo for the hospitality (husband was out of the country), and for making it a great vacation. She is a “super host”, always available and responsive. After running up and down the island for a week, we believe this was probably the best location, especially with that access to the private beach.

About the host

Hosted by Jo

Host profile image
Originally from the UK, Jonah & Jo have lived in Bermuda for over 30 years. Jonah is a well-known local artist working in oil paints and Jo works in the reinsurance industry. We love living by the water and participating in water sports such as snorkelling, kayaking and swimming. We are keen cyclists and so know every inch of the island! We have two dogs, Abby the Dalmatian and Sammy the Cocker Spaniel.

Why they chose this property

We bought this house after renting it for 5 years and just love it. The garden setting is so private and tranquil, but it is just a few steps from the beach where we get the most beautiful sunsets. The house is a little slice of Bermuda history and we are proud to be taking care of it and sharing it with others to enjoy as much as we do.
