Garden cottages in Picard — a comfortable, independent base for exploring the nature of northern Dominica.
Kootney Resorts offers self catering cottages in Picard, on Dominica’s quieter north coast. Each cottage is set up for travelers who want the comfort of a home base with the outdoors right outside the door — a morning hike, an afternoon by the sea, or a slow evening on your own porch. Book direct for the best available rate and a team on the ground who know the island.
Self Catering Cottages For You
Choose from one- and two-bedroom cottages set in a quiet garden in Picard, sleeping from three to five guests, each with private outdoor space and the flexibility of self catering.
Your Base in the North
Portsmouth sits on Dominica’s northwest coast, close to Cabrits National Park, Picard Beach, and some of the island’s best snorkeling and hiking. It’s a calmer, more residential base than Roseau, with quick access to the waterfalls, rivers, and rainforest that make Dominica the Nature Island — while staying close enough to restaurants and local life to feel connected.
