Nowhere is too far from anywhere on Guernsey – but that’s especially true of the sweet self-catering accommodation at Kimberley’s Cottage. Situated halfway between the island’s small airport and St Peter Port, where the ferries from England and France arrive, it's easy to get to and from, no more than two miles from either. And although the little lodge and cottage at Kimberley’s have a countryside setting, it’s just 10 minutes’ walk to the nearest beach and less than that to a great restaurant and bar. But it’s not just the location that makes Kimberley’s such an alluring Channel Islands place to stay, it’s also the accommodation itself.

Choose between a cosy bolthole for two, Mango Lodge, and family-sized Bumblebee Cottage. Each is as charming as the other. Located in the garden of a 16th-century house, they each occupy an old outbuilding that’s been renovated to host guests. The style inside is rustic and cosy and owes something to the ski chalets of Austria and Bavaria. with timber-clad walls, faux-fur throws and animal skin rugs. But that doesn’t mean it’s old-fashioned. Each of the accommodations has a clean and modern bathroom, a Smart TV, wifi and cooking facilities. In Mango Lodge, a kitchenette includes a fridge, coffee machine and hob; in Bumblebee there’s a full-sized kitchen.

Mango Lodge is an open-plan studio-style space built out of a renovated goat shed (though you’d never know it), while Bumblebee Cottage offers separate rooms. Downstairs, there’s a kitchen, bathroom and living room with a sofa that can be converted into a kingsized bed. Upstairs the lofty bedroom has four good-sized single beds so it can sleep a total of six. The outside space – a deck with a fire pit, a lawn and a barn – is shared and likely to be well used given the pristine night skies here. Guernsey’s tourist board is in a constant battle with nearby Jersey over which island has more sun, but frankly, that detail is irrelevant. What matters is that it’s one of the warmest and sunniest places in the UK.

Owners Kim and Klaus have renovated these garden boltholes themselves and they provide more than might be expected. Their welcome pack sets you up for a continental-style breakfast on your first day, they’ll pick you up from the airport if you need it, and they have a pair of electric bikes you can hire. While you’re here, that’s the only transport you’ll need – unless you want to island-hop or take the ferry to St Malo in France. At 5 kilometres by 10 kilometres top to bottom, Guernsey’s historic sites and beautiful beaches are eminently explorable on two wheels or even two feet.

Self catering perfection with heart and soul

We booked for 5 nights but found ourselves unable to leave and stayed for the duration of our holiday, 14 nights. From the crisp white bedsheets to the thoughtfully laid out outdoor areas to chill, Klaus and Kim have created a wonderfully relaxing place for the whole family. We came with our 3 teenage daughters and all had a great experience and felt so at home. We would recommend this accommodation to both couples and families and would come again in a heartbeat. Thanks guys, it’s been tremendous 😊

Lovely accommodation and generous hospitality in a unique setting.

We really enjoyed our stay at Mango Lodge. We were very impressed by the high standard of cleanliness and the combination of rustic Alpine-like decor and modern equipment. Every effort was made to ensure we had a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The secluded area at the rear of the lodge, with comfy seating and a beautiful outlook over neighbouring fields, was a great place to relax. The chickens, ducks, turkey and two cats seemed relaxed too! Just a few steps across from Mango Lodge on the site is The Greenhouse, equipped with an intimate bar, coffee machine, toaster and microwave - we enjoyed drinks and a chat with our hosts there. A short walk through the lanes leads to The Farmhouse Hotel, where we sampled great food, with a specially arranged discount, and a free swim in the pool. In short, lovely accommodation, generous hospitality and a unique setting make this a place we hope to return to before too long!

Perfect time in Guernsey!

I visited Guernsey with my partner in April. A good time to travel. Not too hot, not too cold. The island is very interesting and varied. Rugged cliffs along the coast, old military buildings, great beaches and much more. It should be emphasized that the island is not overrun with tourists. Very pleasant. Our holiday was rounded off by the great accommodation “Kimberleys Cottage Guernsey”. Favorable starting point for activities and good parking facilities. I would also like to highlight the modern accommodation. Everything is clean and comfortable. The operators Kim and Klaus are super friendly and accommodating. Tips for activities and travel destinations are of course included in the service. We would love to come back and enjoy the peace and nature on the insider tip island of Guernsey.
