This three bedroom apartment is set in the peaceful holiday complex of The Ellingham Cottages and overlooks the good-size garden. The Ellingham is nestled within the beautiful parish of St Martins in the south-east of the island. It is only two miles from the picturesque harbour town of St Peter Port and yet are perfectly located for easy access to the stunning south-coast cliffs for scenic hikes; tranquil green lanes ideal for leisurely walks and bike rides; and quiet sandy bays perfect for sunbathing away from the crowds.
The garden is ideal for relaxing in with plenty of places to sit and eat and enjoy a BBQ, a selection of outdoor games for the family to enjoy, children's toys, goal post and plenty of space to kick a ball around.
The three-bedroom apartment is on the first floor and has an open plan kitchen and living room including dining area, plus three spacious bedrooms. The living room has a wall-mounted Smart TV plus DvD player. The master bedroom overlooks the back garden and has a king-size bed, whilst the other two (large) bedrooms are each set up as a twin room. The bathroom has both a bath and a standalone shower and there is additionally a separate cloakroom. This apartment is not suitable for wheelchair users, as there is a standard flight of stairs to access the apartment.
Within just a few minutes walk is the parish 'high street', with some shops, a bakery, Co-Op, M&S Food Hall, garages, a pub, cashpoint and pharmacy. There is a regular bus service that runs past the cottage. The bus service is excellent - cheap, reliable and friendly drivers! This service travels to several places, including the main town of St Peter Port. There is also a circular bus route which you can pick up from The Ellingham which takes you all around the island.
Guernsey is a small island and thus relatively easy to get around. Whether you are wanting to lie back and relax on stretching sandy beaches, watch the bustle of the marina, experience culinary delights, or more active experiences, such as surfing, coasteering, wind-surfing, cycling, hiking, swimming or boogie-boarding - Guernsey offers something for everyone to enjoy. The islands of Herm and Sark are each only a short boat trip away and are always a fantastic day out.
The main town of St Peter Port is set along the sea-front and with a cobbled high street and VAT-free shopping. The morning can be spent browsing the fashion, beauty and jewellery boutiques before stopping for lunch at a harbour-side restaurant. Alternatively, it is lovely to have a simple sandwich lunch sitting on one of the many benches overlooking the harbour filled with yachts. In the afternoon, you may want to visit the highly-decorated house that Victor Hugo lived in when in exile from France, or have a tour around Castle Cornet.
