Advantages: Lovely little island

Disadvantages: Don't stay there for too long as it can become boring.

I went to Jersey a few years ago now but it is a place that I would love to return to. It is a very small island and you can basically see the whole island in a day by car, but there are many places to visit that will keep you entertained for hours. One such place is called the Shell Garden where, as the name indicates, everything is made out of shells (a miniture church etc) - really beautiful.

I went there on a family holiday and we stayed in St. Helier's. This is perhaps the best place to stay! The weather is slightly better than that of England - we went during the first part of summer.

The island has a French influence which makes a short break slightly different from just travelling somewhere in England. Ofcourse there's VAT-free shopping to be done over there so remember to take your money with you! Flights and accomodation are not really expensive - i'm sure your local travel agents or online travel sites will be able to show you a few deals. If you enjoy seafood you'll find some lovely little cafes that do wonderful seafood salads at a very reasonable price...

If you're looking for somewhere to go for a weekend break I would suggest you try Jersey. I just wish I had the time and extra money to return there!
