    Guernsey Church to Church Walk to be held on Sunday 7 th September Kindly sponsored by FLETCHERSPORTS shops, TRADE SAVER / WALKERS CRISPS and P & B DRÜCKES HORTICULTURISTS . Start and finish The event is organised by the Sarnia Walking Club and starts and finishes at the South Esplanade, St. Peter Port, close to the Town bus terminus and almost right outside the Guernsey Brewery, Havelet Bay. Start times for the walk are: women – 9.00am / men – 9.30am. The entry fee for the walk is £5.00. The course The walk covers a distance of 19.4 miles, passing all of the parish churches. Starting in the east of Guernsey, the walk climbs through the narrow roads out of town heading towards St. Martins Church where traditionally walkers touch the Gran Mere statue standing at the church gates to wish themselves luck. The route then hits the main road heading west towards the airport skirting the Forest Church on the way, before heading to the country parish churches of Torteval (6 ¼ miles), St. Peters and St. Saviours. The famous Little Chapel can be seen en route as the 10 miles point is passed with the walk moving down to St. Andrews Church. A short climb and long descent sees the walk pass the Castel Church from where you can see the north of the island and the general direction of the walk. The Vale Church marks the 15 miles point and the walk heads towards the area of St. Sampsons with its harbour, and just inland, its parish church. The walk is now into its final few miles as it heads south towards the finish along the main coast road, from where the islands of Herm, Jethou and Sark can be seen.

  • Guernsey & Sark

    Guernsey & Sark

    6 days Guernsey with Sark 2 October 2018 from £589 Dear members Oh My. Doesn’t time fly! It is hard to believe that it is six years since nearly 50 of us spent five lovely days in Jersey. Why do I raise this? It is that I have not forgotten how a number of you were, at the time, interested in literature, displayed in the hotel, on a day excursion to the smaller Channel Island of Sark which I said I had had the good fortune to visit. It is a unique travel experience. Sark is the last remaining feudal state in Europe and makes an easy and memorable, beautiful day excursion from Guernsey, the second largest of the Channel Islands. Such was the interest while we were in Jersey that, I said I would leave it a couple of years before organising a tour to Guernsey which would include a full day in Sark. My apologises it has taken six years but am pleased to announce that my latest new tour will be to Guernsey and Sark next October. Following my mailing to most of you on my initial planning for Guernsey and your subsequent comments I have been able to reduce the tour price by changing the travel arrangements to high speed ferry from Poole—just 3 hours to Guernsey. I have also changed the date, avoiding the Jewish holidays, on which we travel. I do hope you can join us. Best wishes Denise The beauty of GUERNSEY SARK and its horse drawn carriages ITINERARY Our usual coach pick-ups from Watford Junction station and Bushey Heath for our coach transfer to Bournemouth for an overnight stay at the Suncliffe Hotel in Bournemouth.
