Lovely old(ish) house. Our tour guide was good and house was interesting - but don’t be expecting a very fancy and old castle. The included ice cream was truly delicious. We spent about an hour there altogether.

If you are going to be in Kingston or passing nearby, you have to detour to Devon House. A historically stately mansion that has become Jamaica's centre of gastronomy with several restaurants, cafes, takeaways, and artisan shops and a large square for eating and relaxing outside. You will not be disappointed, we went there in the evening and met up with family. We did not go into every place just the Ice Cream called Iscream Centre and the Bakery. I sampled a fair amount of ice cream before settling on a 3-scoop vanilla bean, grape nut, rum n' raisin, however, I could have chosen so many others. All delicious! Then to the bakery to pick up patties, cakes, and pastries for our trip out the following day. It was good we all shared and each one was great quality and sheer joy to eat. There is so much to do there, but time and family catch-up did not allow. The website is really useful. You will love this place! Please be aware of finding the correct entrance to Devon House, sat navs can let you down!

Visiting the Devon House Mansion was like stepping back into the 19th century with its beautifully preserved architecture and lush grounds. The guided tour was enlightening, detailing the rich history and cultural significance of this national monument. It's a place that truly deserves preservation for its educational and historical value, offering a tangible connection to Jamaica's past."
