Guernsey Self-catering Holidays
The Ellingham offers self-catering holiday accommodation in Guernsey in two wonderful locations. Escape to the Ellingham Cottages in St Martins, located near to stunning cliffs and bays - or stay at the Ellingham Apartments in Bordeaux and explore the more gentle terrain of the north of the island, with its quaint harbours and sandy beaches. Guernsey is a wonderful place to holiday with family or friends as there really is something for everyone to enjoy. From leisurely walks to jumping off cliffs into the sparkling sea; from visiting underground war bunkers to playing frisbee on the beach; from enjoying a crab sandwich in Herm, to dining on lobster overlooking Castle Cornet - your holiday will be fillled with unforgettable experiences. | Our self-catering holiday cottages and holiday apartments are comfortable and fully-equipped. We take care of the details that make your stay extra enjoyable - from preparing your cottage with fresh white bed linen, dressing gowns, towels, toiletries and providing a mid-stay housekeeping service. You will also be able to enjoy the books and games provided. You will have access to our new online Guest Handbook, which contains information about your cottage or apartment, plus includes a stack of local knowledge and recommendations. We offer advice on all sorts, such as island-hopping and the best bus routes. We share our favourite beaches (see you there!) and suggest nearby restaurants, pubs, shops and places of interest. |
We love our island and will be delighted to help you make the most out of your Guernsey holiday.

The best family holidayWe stayed in a superior 2 bed cottage at the St Martins location and had the best family holiday. The cottage had everything we needed and more, the outside terrace with BBQ was a great bonus and we really liked the location on the island. The cottage was clean and exactly as described.

Absolutely marvellous. After thirty years of staying in self-catering, this is by far the best accommodation we have ever had. The property was cleaned and towels/linen changed more often than we have experienced in good hotels. On one occasion we had a problem so sent an email, within two minutes, there was a knock on the door... The management were very friendly and very helpful and accommodating.
