About this property

Architect converted granite barn, 5 Star Gold Award

A listed granite barn on a very quiet lane, ten minutes from the sea, beaches, with a wealth of opportunities for walking and cycling on coastal paths, along tranquil lanes, all within minutes of the property.
The listed barn, and owner's house next door, have both been in the family since they were built a hundred years ago. The property has fields on three sides, which continue in agricultural use, mostly hay-making.
Restaurants and supermarket shopping are available close by, and the bus to St Peter Port stops 3 minutes away, at the bottom of the lane.

The location is in a rural area and is therefore very peaceful, yet it is only 5 mins drive to lovely beaches and restaurants. The hosts Felicity and Larry are very friendly and helpful. The property has everything you need and is very clean.

Super accommodation, well laid out and equipped.

Lovely break in this delightful converted barn. Light, airy and spacious living space. Felicity was very welcoming and we had everything that we needed for a comfortable stay. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone wanting a quiet retreat in a beautiful countryside location on a rouette tranquil.

A pleasure to stay in a converted modern Guernsey barn from yesteryear.

From our first warm welcome we knew we had chosen the perfect place to stay.and I loved the history of the barn being in the same family for many generations with historic pictures on the walls. The hosts were perfect in every way with helpful information about the island and transport options.I would book again if I came back to Guernsey aka (SARNIA)

Great place to stay

If you like fresh air, long walks, time on the beach then this place is perfect. Great hosts who sorted out all the little niggles in no time at all. I’m a great cook and found the kitchen a bit basic, not much storage space for food, but I managed. It’s easy to keep clean, but there is no vacuum cleaner for the carpets in bedroom and on stairs. We stayed 4 weeks and would happily return in the future.

La Foliette

La Foliette is a beautiful property with wonderful hosts. The proportions are generous so my husband and I had lots of room for a relaxing stay. If you do not plan to have a car, there are some things to consider. The walk to a grocery store is fine and the store met all of our needs. The Guernsey bus system works well, but is more limited on the weekend, especially Sunday, and doesn’t run much in the evening. Therefore we were limited to dinner in the house. Restaurants were a significant walk away. We were able to get to all the places we wanted to visit and enjoy during the day with a bit of planning.

La Foliette - extraordinary nett

Wir hatten einen tolle Zeit im La Foliette. Die Begrüßung durch Felicity und Larry (und Hund Betty :-) war super. Felicitiy hat uns als Willkommensgruß selbstgemachte Marmelade, ein selbst gebackenes Brot und eine Flasche Wein zurecht gelegt. Das Haus war sehr schön eingerichtet, es hatte in der Küche und Bad alles, was man in den Ferien benötigt. Sogar einen Teil des Gartens konnten wir benutzen. Die Lage ist ländlich ruhig und sehr zentral zu Bus und Strand. Wir kommen jederzeit gerne wieder und wünsche der Familie Malcic alles Gute!

La Foliette

A beautiful spacious, well appointed and architecturally designed property with lots of character in a quiet but convenient location minutes away from bus stops with access to parts of the island's bus network and the central bus depot at St Peter Port. It is just a 15 minute stroll to the nearest bay. Felicity and Larry were perfect, welcoming and helpful hosts. A wonderful, comfortable and enjoyable week which we hope we can repeat at some time soon.

A beautiful oasis of calm

The owners thought of everything when preparing this property. Lots of personal touchs home made bread, jam ,wine, butter and milk in arrival together with flowers 💐. The owners were very welcoming and actioned anything as needed. The venue is near to the beach and various restaurants are relatively near. However you can cook in the property as it has all the relevant equipment.

Lovely barn conversion

This barn has been well renovated to make a lovely holiday let. The owners live just a few meters away and are extremely welcoming and helpful. Very well equipped. Bedroom and bathroom are downstairs, kitchen and living area are upstairs. Nothing is very far on Guernsey, but we thought this was an excellent location as there are beaches within a relatively easy walk and an hourly bus service into St Peter Port.

Sehr erholsamer Aufenthalt

Das Ferienhaus war sehr liebevoll und mit Stil eingerichtet. Es war alles vorhanden, was man während eines 14-Tage-Aufenthaltes braucht, einschließlich Handtücher und Bettwäsch. Die Vermieter waren sehr bemüht, zum Einstand gab es Wein, frisches Brot und selbstgemachte Marmelade. Mehrere Badebuchten waren in fußläufiger Nähe, auch eine Bushaltestelle konnte man in nur wenigen Minuten erreichen. Insgesamt ein sehr erholsamer Urlaub!
