Submitted by chrisallbutt on Mon, 07/23/2018 - 04:32

Can anybody remember Garway villas.It was on the castle peak road at 11 and half milestone.We lived there int he 60s and 70s.Possibly near the Lido beach as is known now but it didnt have a name then.Any information greatly appreciated.

 

We lived at Garway Villas from late 59 until late 63 (dates are approximate, somewhere I have a photo of it... I have been searching for it for a while, but not found. I know we used to call the beach, 11 1/2 mile beach I will try to a) find the picture and b) figure out how to post it!

 

Hi Chris we lived upstairs from you at Garway Villas at the same time. We also got to see you a few times when we were all back in the UK. Last time I remember seeing you was in Bude early 70's. I have been back to HK loads of times both on holiday and business. Last time was 2019 & also 2019/2020 new year and we managed to find the right area and also my partner's old house Dragon Villla which is still there on the castle peak road. Also have a friend who we stayed with lives near the old Gordon Hard Boat club. Have some photos of me at Garway. Be good to catch up after all these years to hear all about family, brother Simon etc.....

Hi Jeff,i remember meeting up at Bude,probably the last time we saw each other.Myself and wife went back to Hong Kong in 2017 it was the first time i had been back.It wasnt untill we came home and did more research we realised we think it was just above the lido beach.Where are you living now,if you are on facebook i will send a freinds request.Would be good to catch up.
