About

This charming hotel is situated in the country Parish of St. Martin. Ideal for nature lovers, its location in a quiet green valley close to one of Guernsey's most renowned beaches offers the perfect base from which to explore the stunning cliff walks, Saints Bay and the popular coves of the South coast. Ranging from the standard double rooms to the luxurious suites, ideal for those needing an extra space, the bright guest rooms feature soothing colours to create a warm atmosphere in which to completely unwind. The onsite facilities include a heated swimming pool as well as a patio providing the perfect place to share moments with the family. The onsite dining options include a restaurant serving a choice of delicious dishes that will tempt even the most demanding palates. Please Note: The Cosy Double with walk in shower. These double rooms are ideal for single occupancy, but can comfortably accommodate two adults on short stays. They are located in a separate block to the hotel and each room is accessible by an external metal staircase with 12 steps. They have been recently refurbished with new walk-in showers & air conditioning. Please also note that their views are limited.
