The Customs House

The Customs House is a substabtial, period property dating from the early 19th Century. It is situated on The Strand, and backs onto Town Beach, with direct beach access and panoramic views. H.M. Customs & Excise occupied the property until 2003 as the islands’ Customs Office and resident Customs Officer’s home. Typical of a property of this period, the Customs House boasts ample accommodation, generous rooms sizes and high ceilings. Many of the original features are still present, including an attractive period staircase, ceiling cornices, panelled doors & window reveals, and sliding sash windows.

Now split into two 'apartments', Holgates and Western, the property has recently undergone extensive renovation and refurbishment, and now offers the discerning visitor elegant, centrally heated accommodation of the highest quality. Reception rooms, bathrooms and hallways all have oak laminate flooring. Bedrooms, landings and stairs are fully carpeted. Designer bathroom suites have been used throughout, and all bathrooms are fully tiled in white with contrasting aquamarine mosaic detailing. Fully furnished and equipped as you would expect, inclusive of flat screen wall mounted televisions and sound systems throughout.
