The Hidden Cottage – Your Private Escape in Anguilla
Welcome to The Hidden Cottage, a secluded retreat tucked away at the peak of Jonah Hill in Welches. Located on the “not-so-touristy” eastern side of Anguilla, this private getaway is perfect for travelers who want peace, quiet, and a taste of authentic island life.
Five Minutes from Shoal Bay East We’re just a 5-minute drive from Shoal Bay East, one of the Caribbean’s most beautiful beaches. Spend the day on its powdery white sand and crystal-clear waters, then return to your own hidden haven away from the crowds.
Private & Peaceful Setting Our cottage offers a calm and quiet atmosphere you won’t find in busy resort areas. It’s perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring, enjoying a good book, or simply taking in the stillness of island life.
Friendly Hosts Close By While your cottage is fully private, we live just a few steps away on the same property. We’re available if you need tips, directions, or help during your stay, but we always respect your space and privacy. Many guests appreciate knowing that we are nearby.
Authentic Anguilla Experience The eastern side of the island offers a more local vibe, small eateries, and a slower pace. It’s Anguilla the way locals know it, far from the busy hotel zones.
Comfortable & Welcoming Space Inside, you’ll find a thoughtfully furnished space with everything you need for a relaxed stay:
Cozy sleeping area for restful nights Fully equipped kitchen for cooking Private outdoor area for morning coffee or evening drinks Washer and Dryer for your convenience and longer stays
Close to Hidden Beaches You can easily explore beaches like Scilly Cay in Island Harbour, Junks Hole, or Savannah Bay. Each offers its own unique charm and fewer visitors than the main tourist spots.

Both Demi and The Hidden Cottage were great. The house was in a very quiet area. The bed was comfy and everything was clean and had plenty of cookware and other essentials. Demi has made special touches through out the cottage to make it very welcoming.
