The House of Devon
By ,
Nice ambience, and a wonderful place to relax. You may sit in the grass, on benches or just amble around the premises. There are coffee shops, icecream parlours, pastry shops and fine restaurants for your eating pleasure. There are little hideaways too for the kissing young couple! karen levy

Devon House is known for it's famous ice cream. It's a historic place where you can feel the ambiance of an old plantation. You can visit on a Sunday evening where all the locals & tourist come out to listen to nice music, dine & eat Devon House ice cream. With many original fruity flavors, it's the best ice cream on the island. It's a must try!

\"Nice Place to Visit\"
By ,
Devon House is a nice place to visit though I don't go there that often. It's pretty upscale and over-priced but you should check it out, especially it it's your first visit to Kingston.

History in true form
By ,
It is quaint and scenic, when you enter the house, if is as if you are transported in time. They have kept everything in its original form and as such you get a true taste of history.

great juice bar and ice cream
By ,
The Juice Bar in the corner of the courtyard of Devon House is fantastic. Fresh made smoothies, frappes and squeezed juices help quench your thirst on a hot Kingston day! The Ice-Cream shop is also delicious, lots to choose from and the servings are massive.
