The stunning UK island that feels more like the Med – with golden sand and amazing seafood
On arrival at St Peter Port, you’ll be greeted by turquoise water and a picturesque harbour that feels more like the Mediterranean than the UK.
This stretch is also home to the excellent Beach House cafe, which looks rather plain from the outside but serves amazing dishes — including the best seafood chowder on the island — which you can gobble up while taking in views of the bay. We stayed two-and-a-half miles away from Cobo Beach, at the three-star Les Rocquettes Hotel — a former country mansion which now has more than 50 rooms plus a pool, gym, sauna, steam room and award-winning restaurant.Whether you’re into history or not, the 800-year-old Castle Cornet is a must, with dressing up for kids, and soldiers that fire cannons at midday.
Meat lovers should visit The Slaughterhouse, a top restaurant on the edge of Guernsey harbour, which serves burgers, steaks, chicken and ribs — all with a view of the sea.It costs just £9 per adult each way for the 20-minute ferry ride between Herm and St Peter Port Harbour.
