HIGHLAND HOUSE
About 3 miles north of the Village of Codrington, we will take you to the Highland house, also known locally as “Willy Bob”.
It is situated on the highest point of Barbuda, 125 feet above the sea level !
John and Christopher Codrington got the lease for 50 years of Barbuda in exchange of “one fat sheep on demand” !
The floors and lower walls and a large cistern are all that remain of the family settlement of the slave owners. The view from the house is the best way to see most of the coastline of Barbuda on the Caribbean Sea.
