Old Court House Hotel

The hotel is situated on the fringe of Gorey, a charming little port on the islands tranquil south east coast, four miles from the island capital of St. Helier. The hotel is set in its own grounds away from the main road, directly opposite the 4 mile sandy beach of The Royal Bay of Grouville. On leaving the hotel grounds, you cross the main road and you are on the beach! This is a perfect beach for swimming with various water sports being available.

Gorey Village (which has restaurants, shops and the Jersey Pottery) lies directly behind the hotel. The Royal Jersey Golf Club is just a few minutes walk away. Just a ten minute walk away, along the sea front promenade, is the old port of Gorey which lies beneath the towering ramparts of Mont Orgueil Castle. The port of Gorey with its various bars, restaurants and shops is a popular yachting harbour and ferry terminal for boats to the nearby French ports of Carteret and Port Bail which are only a few miles away. Buses stop outside the hotel for the 25 minute journey into St. Helier.

With Jersey being only 9 miles x 5 miles everything Jersey has to offer is literally ‘on the doorstep'.
