Channel Islands

About Jersey

This little-known island has a breathtaking coast and, thanks to its position between Britain and France, benefits from the best of both worlds. Expect French street names and British currency, along with a mild climate, and remnants of a fascinating shared history at every turn.

Jersey is the largest of the Channel Islands but only measures nine by five miles. Despite its compact size, it enjoys a rugged coastline with pristine beaches, magnificent castles, and lush countryside. The island boasts a thriving food scene, taking advantage of its fresh local seafood, famous Jersey Royal potatoes, and dairy products courtesy of the island’s iconic cattle.

There are miles of stunning coastal paths to explore on foot or by bike which will take you through Jersey’s diverse landscape, from country lanes to shady woodland and cliff top viewpoints. St Helier is a historic market town bustling with boutiques, coffee shops and long-standing department stores. There’s a wide range of options for accommodations, from luxury hotels with a Michelin-starred restaurant, to family-friendly self-catering and budget-friendly camping where you can sleep under the stars.

With its stunning natural beauty, magnificent history and full calendar of festivals and events, a visit to Jersey is sure to be an exciting and unforgettable getaway.
