We love...
Wandering through 14 acres of tranquil botanic gardens at Samarès Manor.
Blending British and French influences, the largest Channel Island is as intriguing as it is relaxed. From our base in historic St Helier, we’ll discover the island’s best bits and enjoy its laid-back way of life. Highlights of our Jersey holidays include a visit to pretty Bouley Bay, a smuggler’s haven now famous for its motor racing hill climb events, and a cream tea and wine tasting at a local vineyard. On our Jersey holidays, you'll also enjoy a few days at leisure to unwind and explore at your own pace.

Alternatively, a shuttle bus can transport you to the Jersey War Tunnels. Originally intended to be a barracks and ammunition store for the occupying forces during World War II, it is now a thought-provoking museum to this dark era.

Day 4 - Bouley Bay - Gorey
Our first stop of the day is Bouley Bay, home of the legendary Black Dog - a myth created by smugglers to keep local folk away from the bay and their clandestine activities. We then continue to Gorey. Its castle was built to protect Jersey against the French in the early 13th century, when King John lost his rule over territories in Normandy. We’ll also call in at the Eric Young Orchid Foundation, which houses an award-winning collection of rare and exotic orchids.
