P

int-sized Jersey

is made up of

an intoxicating

patchwork of

scenery. WildŽlower

meadows, sun-drenched vistas,

bird-rich wetlands and wind-

battered coastlines can all be

found here. But these views aren’t

just pretty to look at. Edible plants

and wild sea herbs will literally give

you a taste of the island’s wild side,

while the largely remote and

rugged setting makes it a perfect

place to escape the stresses

of daily life, enjoy a digital detox

and rediscover yourself.

lucky winner a relaxing two-night

stay for two at The Atlantic Hotel,

including Žlights, a three-course

welcome dinner and a foraging

masterclass with executive chef

Will Holland. This is the perfect

A RELAXING SHORT BREAK

FOR TWO TO JERSEY

antidote to burnout: guaranteed

to recharge your batteries and

soothe your weary soul.

Nature, nature

everywhere

Jersey is so awash with wild

within Les Mielles Nature Reserve

that forms part of the coastal

Jersey National Park. The nature

reserve covers nearly a tenth

of Jersey, overŽlowing with

colourful wildŽlowers.

The island isn’t short of

cream-coloured beaches either.

St Ouen’s Bay is fringed by its own

curve of sand, pock-marked with

the remains of German

fortiŽications from the Second
