Cockade House 最初建于 1700 年代,是一座甘蔗种植园,占地 2.5 英亩。原来的房子是班尼特种植园的一部分。在 1960 年至 1972 年间,这座房子曾几次易手,当时它被德里克·格鲁科克 (Derek Grewcock) (参与阿拉斯加管道)买给他的朋友波莉·海伍德 (Polly Haywood),波莉·海伍德委托著名的英国剧院设计师奥利弗·梅塞尔 (Oliver Messel) 重新设计这座房子。奥利弗·梅塞尔重新配置了房子的内部,提高了天花板的高度,增加了阳台,重新设计了立面并加入了一个游泳池。他还设计了游泳池北端的废墟/愚蠢。
在 1980 年代中期,巴巴多斯建筑师迈克尔戈麦斯在该物业的西南部建造了一座小屋,由奥利弗梅塞尔设计。这被称为奥利弗的小屋。 Nick Parravicino 在从 Bennetts 种植园购买额外土地方面发挥了重要作用,该物业现在占地 5.524 英亩。
Cockade 的现任所有者还邀请 Michael Gomes 对现有的浴室和厨房进行现代化改造,并建造两座额外的小屋。 Oliver 的小屋可以翻新以拥有更多卧室和浴室套房,Cockade 现在总共包括 7 间带连接浴室的卧室。业主已将部分土地租给板球学院供年轻的巴巴多斯人使用,其余的土地景观优美,长长的车道和美丽的花园两旁种满了桃花心木。
Cockade House was originally built in the 1700's as a sugar plantation and is set within 2.5 acres. The original house was a part of Bennetts Plantation. Between 1960 and 1972 the home changed hands a couple of times when it was purchased by Derek Grewcock (who was involved in the Alaska Pipeline) for his friend Polly Haywood who commissioned the renowned English theatre designer, Oliver Messel, to redesign the house. Oliver Messel reconfigured the interior of the house, raised the height of the ceilings, added the verandahs, redid façade and incorporated a pool. He also designed the ruin/folly at the north end of the pool.
In the mid 1980's Barbadian architect, Michael Gomes built a cottage to the south west of the property to a design left by Oliver Messel. This is known as Oliver's Cottage. Nick Parravicino was instrumental in purchasing additional land from Bennetts plantation and the property now sits on 5.524 acres.
Cockade's present owner also enlisted Michael Gomes to modernise the existing bathrooms and kitchen and build two additional cottages. Oliver's cottage can be refurbished to have a further bedroom and bathroom suite, in total Cockade now consist of 7 en-suite bedrooms. The Owner has leased part of the land to the Cricket Academy for the use of young Barbadians, with the remainder of the property well landscaped with mahogany trees lining the long driveway and beautiful gardens.
