La Rue des Rocques, Torteval GY8 0LZ
Nestled within the idyllic rural parish of Torteval, this charming semi-detached cottage has been lovingly maintained by the current owner.
Dating back to the mid 1800’s, La Vieille Grange offers a kitchen, lounge diner with feature fireplace and two bedrooms serviced by a smartly fitted shower room on the first floor. With an allocated parking space and a separate private lawn (which can also provide an area for further parking), all within a picturesque setting, viewing is recommended to appreciate all on offer.
Torteval is in two parts, although only 100 feet apart at Rue de L’Aitte. It includes Pleinmont Point, a favourite walk beginning at the quaint harbour of Portelet. The higher ground is Guernsey’s equivalent to Land’s End and the start, or end, of the spectacular south-coast network of cliff paths.
The sandy stretch of Rocquaine Bay and its regatta shared with St Peter’s are mentioned above, but Torteval’s great attraction is the Scarecrow Festival, annually drawing in 8,000 people over two days, strolling through the patchwork of scenic lanes near the parish church.
There is space aplenty throughout the parish, due to the relatively low ratio of houses, and demand is high. Some buyers say it’s too far out, which, for others, is what makes Torteval special.
