My first experience of Jersey was as a teenager. I was 17 and it was the last holiday I went on with my parents. Being a grumpy teenager I didn't think it sounded very exciting. I was expecting scones, OAP's and cows. What I actually got was one of the best holidays I've ever been on. I loved it so much that I persuaded my wife we should go ...  Read the complete review

It is part of the Channel islands. The other islands are Guernsey, Alderney, Sark and Herm. I have ...  Read the complete review

We chose to go to Jersey as we felt it had something for everyone. My daughter is 4 and though loves the idea of sitting on a beach making sandcastles would probably be bored if we spent all day doing it.My husband would definitely be bored after a while. The beaches are long and clean and it is lovely just to walk along the beaches ...  Read the complete review

I'm sure everyone in the UK knows where Jersey is located but for all of you folks who may be as ignorant as me at first , Jersey is one of the beautiful islands which belong to the Channel Islands group which are located kind of south of England ( and the rest of UK I suppose ). Jersey is apparently only 7 miles from the coast of France but ...  Read the complete review

This will not be an up to date ‘fly on the wall’ op, as I haven’t been back to Jersey since 1995. Although I will endeavour to inject a lot of facts and a little bit of history here, this is essentially my opinion on an island that I love. My memories of this idyllic island stretch back a long way, and may be a little ...  Read the complete review

It is one of the Channel Islands, along with Guernsey, ...  Read the complete review

Last year hubby and I decided that we would go to Jersey for a week, as at that time I was still not comfortable with flying. We wanted to feel that we had been "abroad" (even though Jersey is part of The British Isles) but without going too far. As I am a teacher, we obviously have to plan our holidays around the school ...  Read the complete review

Jersey is a fantastic place for a holiday. Firstly as it is counted as part of the UK, you don’t actually need a passport to go there from England. Secondly for all those nervous fliers out there (this includes me!), the flight time is extremely short – around 35-35 minutes depending on the weather. If you are lucky to fly into ...  Read the complete review

We have just returned from seven days in Jersey and must go back there at some time - soon. It was so relaxing, we stayed in St Helier at the Metropole with half board. Hotel was spot on, food excellent, staff friendly and ever helpful, rooms spotless. The weather was superb, sunny for the most part with the odd shower now and ...  Read the complete review

I went to Jersey about 4 years ago for the first time. I was about 13 and it was the furthest id ever been on holiday before! So as far as I was concerned - we were going abroad! (Which I know is not strictly the case....but hey - you cant blame a girl for trying!!) We sailed from Portsmouth (I think!) on the fast ferry...which was ...  Read the complete review

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 ...  Read the complete review

"Have you got any armaments?" was the question that greeted us as we stepped on Jersey soil for the first time - certainly a novel greeting in a holiday destination! Jersey, of course, has a reputation as a playground of the rich, upper-class and famous. And judging by the shiny BMWs; Landrovers and sports cars that were lined ...  Read the complete review

My husband and I went to Jersey for the first holiday we had when we were married. What a beautiful place.

There is a fabulous candle making factory, where ...  Read the complete review

My husband and I first went to Jersey for our honeymoon eight years ago. We enjoyed so much that we just had to return for our 5th wedding anniversary and intend to go again very soon. When we got married we went the full hog with a five star hotel in the middle of the capital, St Helier and it was superb. We had half-board and the food ...  Read the complete review

I've visited Jersey on holiday a few times, and have always been very lucky with the weather Its noticeably warmer , always, than the South coast, and has exotic plants growing on the island to prove it. I found Jersey not too pricey once there, but it does cost the same as going to Menaorca, for example. the package holidays on offer are ...  Read the complete review

Jersey is a beautiful island full of beautiful scenery and surrounded by beautiful beaches. However, it has problems, not least of which is the cost of getting there and the cost of staying there. A weekend in Jersey will cost you the same as a week full-board in Majorca or the Greek Islands. A week in Jersey will cost you the same as a ...  Read the complete review
