Rocquette Cider

As the name suggests we are principally Cider Producers. Our range consists of draught cider, 2 different strength bottled ciders and a range of 6 bag-in-box still ciders. We also produce 5 fruit liqueurs, 2 apple chutneys and apple juice. In recent years we have built an off-shoot doing tasting tours for local sports and social clubs and cruise ship passengers visiting the island. We are expanding this side of the business this year to encourage more holidaymakers to come and visit us. The latest addition to our product list is Cider Brandy. We purchased a still last year (2018) and we produced our first batch in January 2019. The maturation process takes 3 years but it will be well worth the wait.

A very enjoyable and entertaining evening with our excellent guide Craig. A very informative tour in a beautiful setting with delicious cider and local cheese at the end of it. We will definitely return with friends and family. I would highly recommend this.

Folk & Costume Museum, National Trust of Guernsey

Set within the 18th century sable complex of Saumarez Park, the Folk and Costume museum offers an insight into all aspects of daily life on Guernsey for the past 250 years.

Reviewed By HowardGuernsey

My main reason in visiting the museum was to see the exhibits relating to Olivia de Havilland. The two staff members in charge were charming and informative. I was handed an interesting brochure about the dear lady which enhanced my visit no end. I last saw Olivia in 1966 when she was part of the Chevauchee procession. She was a beautiful and delightful addition to the occasion and I was excited to see again the lovely dress that she wore on that day. Many congratulations to the National Trust of Guernsey in arranging this special exhibition Thank you very much Warm regards Howard England

Saumarez Park

Reviewed By EveLeSauvage

There are so many things you can do and the park is suitable for anyone at any age. They have a lovely playground for children, an amazing cafe for a light snack or a full meal and there is even a gym! You can take peaceful walks or bike rides here and it is thoroughly enjoyable.
