"Cotton House\nThe Discreet Charms of Mustique's Exclusive Resort\nThe cottages and villas of Cotton House, a 13-acre resort on Mustique, in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. The structures\u2014some of which were created by the late English set designer Oliver Messel\u2014are clustered around a historic sugar mill.\nThe mini spa is located near the beachfront.\nThe Great Room\u2014in a former cotton barn\u2014serves as the resort's central meeting place. Aubrey Carew and Charles Brooks, of Designers' Choice, restored the original Messel d\u00E9cor and painted the stone walls coral. The settee and armchair were made on St. Vincent.\nBronze-and-glass hurricane lamps illuminate the tables in the restaurant, where Caribbean delicacies are served. \"We retained the plantation-house feel of the space,\" says Carew, \"and added bright fabrics and romantic lighting.\" The tableware was made on Barbados.\nAn 18th-century sugar mill, including remnants of the sugar pan building, is at the heart of the resort. Built from coral stone, the tower now houses a boutique. Baliceau House, in the background, includes four rooms designed by Messel.\nCoutinot House\u2014another Messel original\u2014was renovated by the Toronto firm Chapman Design Group. In the master suite, mosquito netting encloses the wrought iron bed. The Pierce Martin night tables are made of wicker and bamboo with bone knobs.\nThe poolhouse overlooks L'Ansecoy Bay and the Atlantic. \"It's on a hilltop, twelve sets of stairs from the main house,\" says Carew, \"so guests love to come up at sunset and enjoy the view.\" The wicker chairs and the low tables were made locally."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
