Route du Coudre, St Pierre du Bois GY7 9HX
Bumble Cottage is a charming semi-detached cottage situated in a desirable location and just a short walk from Rocquaine Bay and the Cup & Saucer.
The accommodation is spread over three floors, on the ground floor there is a well-appointed kitchen, large sitting/dining room with a multi-fuel stove and entrance porch. On the first floor the primary bedroom is complimented by an ensuite shower room, both with views towards L’Eree and Lihou, a further double bedroom and family bathroom and on the second floor is another large double bedroom. Externally there is a tiered south facing garden with wonderful sea views and parking for one/two cars.
Step back a pace into rural St Peter’s, where the family next door will have owned the same house for generations. Tradition and the beauty of these houses go some way to explain why, and strict planning measures allow limited opportunity for new residents wanting to share this sylvan idyll.
St Peter’s has two coastlines – dramatic high cliffs to the South, with an exceptional stretch of the cliff-path network, and sandy beaches to the West that, with Torteval, host the annual Rocquaine Regatta (Henley, it’s not!). At the far end of L’Eree beach is the tidal island of Lihou and the adjacent nature reserve that form Guernsey’s first RAMSAR site. Also hereabouts are the showground fields for the annual two-day West Show, an agricultural and side-show extravaganza.
