I am writing this piece while sat on the ferry after having holidayed in Guernsey for the week with my family.
I am lucky enough to get spend some time on this idyllic little island with my work but it is just the second time that my family have come with me. We stayed in a friendly hotel in Guernsey named the Rocquettes which is sited in the harbour and capital of Guernsey St Peter Port.
St Peter Port or town as the Guerns call it is the capital of Guernsey and is an excellent place to stay when checking out the island with plenty to do and see. It is full of trendy small shops and as the island is VAT free there are some great little deals to be found.
There are some excellent fish restaurants in Guernsey that cater for all tastes and being a harbour the fish eateries are particularly good with heaps of fresh locally caught fish on the menu.
There are some great little bars on the island with lots of personality and some that serve great food including "The Swan Inn" in St Peter Port which is listed in the Michelin guide, or even the pub on the beach at Cobo Bay where you can watch the nightfall while enjoying your favorite.
The beaches on Guernsey are impressive to say the least as are the cliff top walks with amazing views, and anybody who likes to do a bit of fishing couldn't go to a better place. I took my son George and my Dad in law out on a fishing outing with one of the local fisherman and cannot believe the number and variety of fish that we caught. We even got the chef back at the hotel to prepare our evening meal with a number of them.
