| Loxsley Park
The grounds that surround Loxsley Hall are extensive and contain a small wood that covers about fifteen acres, a medium sized lake which the Devereux children like to take boats out onto. There are extensive flower gardens, a vegetable and herb walled garden, a small amount of farm land and an indoor swimming pool.

| The Golden Oak
The Golden Oak is the only pub in the village, and therefore offers the finest ale, cider and mead on the whole of the island and is always full as soon as work is finished. Yet it is a well scrubbed and respectable establishment that Lord Devereaux always visits on his way through back from business on the mainland.

| Sacred Hill Church
Sacred Hill church was built in 1445, and is very old, but thanks to acts of charity and patronage from the Devereaux family, it has been full restored. Made of gray stone with a flint and slate roof, the stained glass windows stand out almost garishly, their colours bright and inviting. The church is always packed on a sunday, and also at weddings and funerals and christenings. It is often the most sociable place in the village.

Above the shop there is a four-room apartement for the Ainsley siblings. Underit the building is much more interesting with large windows which allow window-shopping. One can see some of the latest designs of Cecillia Ainsley. Inside, it is heaven for the ladies. Numerous materials and colours take up one wall, there are also already finished gowns with smaller accessories. Behind the counter a door leads to the back room which is the working room where Anastasia, Cecillia and their helpers work on their masterpieces.

The beach is covered in white sand leading into a silvery blue sea and is a great place to come in the summer, when there are picnics, swimming competitions, and towards sunset, romantic walks by the sea edge, lovers leaving their foot prints along the sand...
