Rain Forest botanical paradise: the flowers and plants in this garden will take one's breath away, fantastic views from hill top looking out east over the Atlantic and the 'Scotland District of Barbados, benches for resting in secluded shady spots, the peace that one wishes, missing from one's work life is here. Worth more than money, relax and restore the soul...

We weren't planning on stopping at this attraction, but so glad we did. They provide a laminated map that tells you about many of the flowers you will see along the pathways and of course, the different paths you can take. Very well maintained. Employees are very friendly. Took us about an hour at a leisurely place.

Well during my holiday to Barbados I visited Welchman Hall Gully twice and it was truly a wonderful experience calm an atmosphere you could breath in and almost touch amazing trees plants and if you are lucky the cheeky green monkeys. Barbados is an amazing unspoilt island still a " little England " get out of town and visit the countryside places like Welchmans are a real treat step back into an England of the 1950s peaceful great kind people. Of course a review wouldn't be complete without a mention for the wonderful Connie who welcomes you at the reception point not only a beautiful lady but she can also cook you a tasty local style snack not to be missed. Have fun !

What a mind blowing contrast to the sun and sand. Explore what lies below the surface and makes the landscape of Barbados different. We took the tram tour with the lovely Hyacenth as our guide, knowledgable and fun she gave a great history of the caves and their formation over thousands of years, awesome pictures for your memories.
