We had a fantastic time at Todmorden, thanks so much to Esther & Katrina for looking after us - it was a real treat to be spoilt rotten! Barbados is a beautiful island and none of us will forget the time we had here in the sun & the rum!! Definitely recommend a catamaran tour along the coast & the distillery trip to Mount Gay was a delight( but dont drink & drive) and a meal at Tides was a real highlight for us! We will be back to see if the potholes in Gibbes has been repaired lol !!! Team BlueSky 🙂

The Spite Family
The best relaxed holiday we have all ever had. Every need is catered for. Lovely having a housekeeper and chef - who were both amazing and so friendly. Andrew was always attentive and met all needs. Wow - we loved it here!
The MacArthur Family
The time has come to leave Todmorden and we have enjoyed every minute. The house works perfectly and the pool/garden really top it off. The laughter and smiles of Pasquale, Janelle and Joseph are infectious. We thank them for all the advice, care and delicious meals in this stunning environment! Our time was split between the beach, boats, the pool, relaxing and eating deliciously fresh fish which Janelle delivered with ease despite our random supply of ingredients and ever changing numbers.
The Fulcher Family
We have had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay at Todmorden. We have holidayed on the island many times, however, this is the first time we have had staff and would very much recommend it. Pasquale and Janelle looked after us superbly. We enjoyed the sunrise in the morning and the monkeys in the afternoon playing in the garden.
The Small Party
We celebrated a 50th birthday at Todmorden and we had such a wonderful experience! From the personal care and service of Pasquale and Lou-Ann to the safety of the property. We hope to return next year!
The Cooper Party
Thank you for your care and for the opportunity to stay in your beautiful villa! Wonderful pool, gardens, relaxing rooms and great beds. Janis and Pasquale were great and looked after our every need. We lacked nothing!
The Chernin Party
Dear Owners,Thank you so much for creating such an oasis and letting other guests experience Barbados through the beauty of your wonderful property. The villa exceeded our expectations - every single detail was thought through and made our vacation very comfortable. It was great to be spoiled by Janis' delicious cooking (I took the pumpkin pie recipe home) and Pasquale kept the place clean and tidy. This is our second time on the island and we will definitely be back! While we enjoyed delicious breakfasts a
The Gifford Party
A double celebration at Todmorden - 45th wedding anniversary and our grandsons 1st birthday. We couldn't think of a better setting. The layout of the villa was perfect for a one year old to get about and no stairs for the 'oldies'! Fantastic pool too!! Being looked after by Janis and Pasquale was wonderful, however, we enjoyed eating out too. Having dined at The Cliff, The Cliff Beach Club, Lonestar, Tides, Jumas, Fishpot, Mullins, to name a few. The Cliff for our 45th was by far the best, although expensiv
The Widdowson Party
Thank you everyone at Todmorden. This has been a truly fantastic holiday. 2 weeks of being looked after by amazing Janis and Pas! We could not have asked for more. Toby and Harry loved the turtles and monkeys, and Kathryn and I were able to read our books, briefly.THANK YOU!!
The Yelle Party
We had a wonderful time in Barbados in Todmorden villa. Thank you to Janis and Pasquale for their amazing hospitality and making us feel at home. The food was delicious and we enjoyed our stay. Thank you for the great memories!
Christine & Family
A wonderful holiday in a beautiful setting, both the house and garden. The welcome and continuing care by both Janis and Pasquale could not be beaten. The memories will be a little bit of "Island Paradise"!
The Cripe Party
We had a delightful visit! Janis and Pasquale are a wonderfully awesome combo. They were indispensable. Our meals were yummy and the home beautiful. We will always have beautiful memories!
The Vasek Party
We had a delightful visit! Janis and Pasquale are a wonderful awesome combo. They were indispensable. Our meals were yummy. The home beautiful. We will always have beautiful memories!
The Snell Family
We have spent a glorious 10 days at the villa, 4 of us. The villa and the gardens are beautiful, so relaxing. Janis and Pasquale looked after us really well. Janice cooked delicious dinners and lunches. Pasquale kept everything very clean. We felt very pampered. I am sure we will return as we had such a great holiday.
The Byford Party
Looking forward to our next visit, when we might get to see the monkeys. Many thanks again.PS. We can thoroughly recommend Janis' pumpkin pie and her fishcakes!PPS. Extra thanks for the magnificent chocolate cake for my birthday on the 30th.
The Byford Party
Our third visit to Todmorden and our fifth time being cooked for by Janis! The Janis and Pasquale team is amazing and the new gardeners have the property looking good as well. This really is a blessed spot for us close to the beach, but not on it, up on the ridge where we have green and gentle breezes. Peaceful yet not far from anything. The property is much improved since we were here two years ago so many thanks to the owners for all the effort to make that happen.
The Griffin Family
The Griffin family has fallen in love with Barbados and the staff of Todmorden. Janis and Pasquale made our stay unforgettable. We will be back and pray that they will continue to be blessed as they have blessed us.
The Ferguson Party
Todmorden was beautiful and immaculate and I especially want to highlight strong feedback on Pasquale and Janis. Janis' cooking is better than the Lone Star and we loved her energy and enthusiasm. Pasquale not only kept Todmorden immaculate and running well, she also provided us with guidance on navigating the area better than a Four Seasons concierge. You are very lucky to have these two on your staff. Todmorden would not be the same without them.
The Ross Family
We came to Barbados to celebrate the end of the 11th marathon and we have not been disappointed.The villa is beautiful, fabulous pool, glorious gardens and the kindest, friendliest most efficient staff. The pumpkin soup, flying fish, banana bread... delicious. And the order in which the rooms are kept - so tidy and with attention to detail... who needs the Four Seasons?! Janis and Pasquale have been brilliant, give them a raise!!Thank you Todmorden!
The Ross Family
Great holiday in a great villa. Our second time with Blue Sky Luxury - We will come again!
The Weller Party
Again nothing to be added to previous 2 entries. Janis' food top notch and Pasquale's housekeeping impeccable.Joseph - a quiet gem :)I do want to add how kind and caring both Janis and Pasquale were to my disable sister who was bedridden for many days after a difficult journey. Their kindness will never be forgotten.We've visited many villas throughout Europe and this villa was by far the nicest - thanks mostly to the staff. Hope to become a regular :)P.S. Would gladly take Janis and Pasquale back with us t
The Taylor Party
This is our second time back to the villa and I'm sure a third visit will be ASAP.As usual this villa is so relaxing and the choice of places to go are just getting better.Janis and Pasquale have seen to all our requirements. The food that Janis prepares is something else. Pasquale kept everything clean and tidy.We love this villa and Barbados for its relaxing ways.
Chris & Family
Had a fantastic stay at Todmorden - made extra special by Janis and Pasquale who have gone out of their way to meet all our needs.The pool is fantastic and my son loved having the shallow end to play in. Having the beach on your doorstep is the icing on the cake.Thanks again to the staff - Janis and Pasquale they are wonderfulHope to be back soon.
Sarah, Andrew & Luke
We had the most incredible time here! It was a great first family vacation. Thank you for taking such great care of us. We will be back and Luke will be talking and walking.
The Brainerds
What a lovely home - so well thought out architecturally, add to that the glorious weather (love the rain at night) as we left snow hidden Chicago near zero degrees. Then to make the vacation even more perfect, we had Janis and Pasquale feeding us fresh veggies, fish and cleaning up each day - fresh towels, beds all made!We traveled throughout the island sometimes with a driver, but one must try the bus as well - the people are all friendly and most polite, which made the ride a joy and the drivers horn was
The Taylor Party
We all had a fantastic holiday in Barbados and staying at villa Todmorden, this was our forth time back to Barbados and we hope to return ASAP.

The villa has been wonderful with relaxing surroundings and excellent privacy. We will be back soon!!
The Byford Party
We had a wonderful Christmas here, so warm and welcoming and a blessed changed from cold rainy London. We were delighted to be reunited with the staff. The authentic and lovingly prepared dishes are legendary in our family and should be so throughout the Western world! Thank you for our special Bajan Christmas and for creating more happy memories for our family. Gibbs Beach awaits you, dawn and sunset are equally spectacular you can chill out under the trees!
Karen & Jasper
Thank you for a lovely stay in these fantastic surroundings. We have enjoyed ourselves and look forward to returning another time.
