I celebrated my birthday at the castle with friends, and it was definitely one to remember. Having the entire castle to ourselves made it feel like something out of a fairytale! Exploring the grounds at night with a hint of spookiness was definitely a highlight. Although we were unlucky with the weather and ended up stranded because the duck boats weren’t running, it didn’t bother us at all. We had the grounds all to ourselves, enjoyed a private beach for swimming, and had plenty of board games we’d brought along to keep us entertained. The stay was incredibly cosy, and Chris, the groun...more
A very Happy family holiday on Hamptonne Farm. Charming hostoric setting with pigs, calves and chickens to entertain children.
The place makes a wonderful impression as soon as you walk in. It’s warm and cozy, truly making you feel at home. It’s equipped with everything you need to cook or prepare your daily meals. I was thrilled by the quality of the interior design; every detail was carefully chosen to create a unique experience. I will definitely come back.
Amazing location and venue to stay in. Very warm and comfortable, with everything you need. Easy to access and parking across the road. Perhaps could also open up the barrier to enable visitors to park their car closer for unloading. Otherwise a lovely family experience.
A fantastic place to stay. Only negatives I can mention was that the oven was very temperamental and the facility could do with another loo when 8 people are staying
Couldn’t find the instructions for the oven and it was too complicated to work out,no glass container to fit the microwave and so I had to cook our meal in a saucepan on top of the stove. I only mention this problem because everything else was so perfect and exactly what we wanted.
It was a wonderful staycation in a cosy and atmospheric setting. Perfect for a Halloween party! It was very clean and comfy with high quality furnishings. The addition of DVDs, books and board games was a nice touch
Great place to celebrate birthday with friends. Definitely unusual venue ; clean and warm especially on such an autumnal long weekend. Lots of steps so pack light!
A lovely place for a few days, specially in autumn when the place is yours after five. Everyone has been friendly and helpul, online and on site (special thanks to Warren). The place is ideal and safe with kids. A powerful memories maker!
Another great stay at La Rocco tower. We were lucky with the weather. Sunset views from the top of the tower were stunning and clear skies for start gazing in the evening. Seeing quite a few shooting stars. Kayaking there and back was kept interesting with a little swell and a few waves on the beach. A top mini adventure.
We planned our wedding at Barge Aground with the support of Melissa Bartlett, the Heritage Weddings Co-ordinator and the administration team. Thank you for all your help, it was appreciated. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect setting. The views are stunning and we were so lucky to enjoy more than one beautiful sunset during our stay. The interior is cosy and the kitchen was spotless and had everything we required. Perhaps the only addition would be some sort of cork stopper to preserve an opened bottle of wine. The beds were comfortable and we were provided with more than sufficient pil...more
Fantastic support from Jersey Heritage. Gorgeous location. Only issue is the main room leaks terribly when it rains and is uninhabitable.
Trudie our guide was brilliant and I would recommend her we had a brilliant time. When we arrived I noticed the crockery and cutlery were icky (they had not been cleaned properly). Brick dust had been falling down and covered the top shelf in the kitchen (If another group had been in recently then they hadn't left the tower in a good state if however a group hadn't been in then I can see the wind had pushed this in). Cutlery and large items scapulars etc were in a mess. Trudie together with another member of my party and myself spent time cleaning and arranging them where they should go so...more
This was a perfect base for laid back beach life at St Ouens. Basic camping style accommodation, but kept you dry and out of the wind at night. Public toilets just a couple of mins walk away. Great storage space for surf boards and ideal for BBQs outside watching the sunset. If you cant take your own BBQ there is a decent one on site. Huge dining table on the ground floor, very atmospheric, but you will need lots of light, so take candles and lamps. Our UK /USA guests were very impressed they had access to an 18th century martello tower, so it was a big success.
