Bloomfield Great House

This immaculate historic home stands atop a hill southwest of the town center. The two-story structure built in traditional Caribbean vernacular gleams after a fine renovation. It is about 170 years old (the exact date is uncertain) and began life as the center of a coffee estate and, later, a citrus plantation. It’s now one of Jamaica’s finest art galleries and a premier restaurant. The art galleries feature works by many of Jamaica’s leading artists, as well as an international repertoire. There are five arts-and-crafts studios and stores in the arcade downstairs. The entrance is 200m south of Manchester College, on the opposite side of the road at the crossroads.
