Alderney is the third largest and most northerly of the
Channel Islands, measuring some three and a half miles long by one and a half
miles wide. Situated approximately 60 miles from Britain and 7 miles from
France, the island enjoys a mild climate and a slower pace of life, with an
abundance of beautiful beaches, breathtaking walks and an ancient and varied
history.
Pipedreamer House is well positioned overlooking the fabulous Braye Beach and
Harbour with the charming town of St Anne featuring an attractive array of
cobbled streets and palm lined avenues providing an excellent variety of
individual shops, bars, restaurants and banks. Well-connected with direct
scheduled air links from the UK, Alderney has its own airport and harbour.
With over 50 miles of walks and paths taking you across
cliff tops, beaches and around town, the best way to discover Alderney is on
foot. There is much to discover while walking around the island and the scenery
is simply spectacular with the dramatic cliffs on the south coast dotted with
Victorian and German fortifications, the fabulous sandy beaches and
promentaries
sprinkled with Victorian forts and bunkers along the north and east coasts and
the bird sanctuary island of Burhou off to the north west.
The Round Island Boat Trips are highly recommended and most informative as the
crew share their knowledge of ornithology and the history of the Island,
including tales of Alderney's many shipwrecks.
The Alderney golf course is a 9-hole course with alternate tees, which add
distance and variety to each hole, making it an overall, challenging 18-hole
course. The natural hazards of the course call for additional skills and, at
certain times, the wind factor can test the most competent of golfers. The
course is one of the most scenic and testing golf courses in the Channel
Islands with the superb views flitting between the English Channel and the
nearby French coast as you complete the course.
You are simply spoiled for choice on Alderney for places to
eat out. There are in excess of twenty superb eating places offering fine,
locally sourced produce and catering for every possible taste. Many
establishments provide outdoor terraces or courtyards for al fresco dining -
there really is nothing better on a warm summer's day than enjoying a superb
Alderney seafood platter with a chilled glass of Chardonnay!
