Channel Island RETREATS

Here’s our pick of the best places to stay…

- HELENA CARTWRIGHT

Herm THE WHITE HOUSE HOTEL

Minute Herm, reached via a short boat trip from Guernsey, is a real gem. It’s home to a population of around 60. The island’s only hotel is The White House Hotel, with its superb harbourside setting. At this country house-style property, tradition is cherished and many families have been visiting for generations. The owners encourage you to unwind, so you won’t find TVs, clocks or telephones. Enjoy tea by the pool or play croquet and tennis. With no cars, it’s a tiny speck of paradise.
