Nestled in a sheltered bay on the northwest coast of Saint Lucia, you’ll find Calabash Cove built on a hillside gently sloping towards the azure waters of the Caribbean Sea. Saint Lucia is a beautiful oasis with some of the best weather and luxurious vegetation in the world. The climate is hot and tropical, tempered by welcome trade winds during most of the year and Saint Lucia’s favorite boutique hotel is beckoning to you.  With a backdrop of lush vegetation and panoramic views of the ocean, our beachfront retreat features 26 suites that offer modern day comforts with the traditions of the West Indies in mind.  All with Jacuzzis and many with private plunge pools, Calabash Cove is perfectly suited for a couple’s getaway or romantic honeymoon, since the hotel has been designed with great care to complement and exist in harmony with the beauty of its natural surroundings. Our private beach sheltered by nearby coral reef provides the perfect place to rest, reflect and dream.  Unlock your soul, rediscover your inner self and be in harmony with nature –good conversation, great food and amazing views are all present in the moment at Calabash Cove.

Allegra Farm

Now in our fourth decade, Allegra Farm is the largest authentic livery stable in Connecticut, catering solely to those who desire a unique experience from a bygone era.  Allegra Farm is home to the Horse Drawn Carriage and Sleigh Museum of New England, and full-time carriage service is our only business.  From elegant carriages to well trained & groomed horses, from authentic attire to the proper etiquette, our meticulous eye for historical detail will carry you away to the Victorian Age in style.
Located on beautiful Lake Hayward in East Haddam, CT, we offer scenic, romantic carriage rides around the lake and will travel throughout New England for weddings, anniversaries, proms, and other celebrations. In addition, we cater to city and town events, festivals, parades, parties, and most solemn antique horse-drawn funerals.  Our antique sleighs offer an invigorating ride through New England’s snow-covered landscape. If you wish to learn to drive your own carriage, we can provide lessons as well.  Our horses are fully and personally trained by us, ensuring your comfort and safety.
Almost every carriage, in addition to being a true antique, has been featured in movie productions such as Steven Spielberg’s “Amistad”, “The Time Machine”, and “Kate and Leopold.” Television appearances include “Sex in the City”, and “Ed”.  Allegra Farm horses and carriages are a year-round fixture at the Mystic Seaport Museum in Mystic, CT.  Make your next occasion magic and memorable and travel in royal style with Allegra Farm livery stables.  Visit us online at www.allegrafarm.com for pictures and contact information.
