The parish of St Martins is stunning and the setting for much of the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society. Walking on the cliffs and stopping at Moulin Huet bay for an ice cream is a perfect way to spend the day
Where to stay?...
Whlist Guernsey is only 24 square miles, it packs a punch with different landscapes in different parts of the island. The south coast stuns with dramatic cliffs overlooking the bright blue sea and picture-perfect bays. To the east is is the main town of St Peter Port with its' pretty harbour, excellent restaurants and boutique shops lining the cobbled streets. The north coast has small harbours and marinas, swathes of common land, wonderful and easy coastal walks and long stretches of pristine sandy beaches. And the busier west coast is popular for its surfing beach of Vazon and the beaches of Cobo, Grande Rocques and Port Soif.
The Ellingham Cottages is on the south-east coast, nestled between the cliffs and and bays, yet close to St Peter Port. The Ellingham Apartments at Bordeaux is on the north-east coast by Bordeaux Harbour and close to the beaches of L'Ancresse and Pembroke.

Guest Reviews
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.
