Montpelier Plantation Inn, set in 30 acres, is a romantic hideaway located 750 feet above the Caribbean Sea on the island of Nevis. The 17th century plantation is rich with history and witnessed the marriage of Lord Horatio Nelson to Fanny Nisbet in 1787. Today Montpelier Plantation has been carefully restored to its former glory, and is a secluded retreat from the hectic pace of 21 century life offering serenity and grace against a backdrop of stunning natural beauty.
