Les Courtes Fallaizes, St Martin's GY4 6DH
This exceptionally charming property is nestled in a highly sought-after location in St Martin’s, close to Jerbourg and with scenic cliff walks on your doorstep.
The accommodation indoors offers a generous kitchen/dining space, a cozy sitting room with a working log burner, and two bedrooms, serviced by a bathroom. Externally, the property benefits from a low maintenance courtyard garden, with steps up leading to an impressive rooftop decked area.
Jerbourg Point marks St Martin’s and Guernsey’s south-east corner with panoramic views across to neighbouring islands. Fermain Bay was a favourite of Victor Hugo’s, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir captured Moulin Huet in fifteen of his paintings.
Cliff paths and green lanes provide excellent walks and Sausmarez Manor is a resplendent Queen Anne house, with regular events in its grounds. There are good family amenities, excellent hotels, restaurants and pubs, plus a M&S food hall for home dining. This is a sought-after location with a vibrant parish centre and housing market to match.
At the gateway to St Martin’s parish church stands La Gran’mère du Chimquière (the grandmother of the churchyard), where present-day brides often adorn the pagan statue-menhir (c.2500BC) with a floral headdress.
