A taste of life on the islands

Foodies will be flocking to Guernsey next month for the third annual Food Festival.

The gastronomic bonanza runs from September 15-24 and celebrates the best produce from the island, plus its neighbours Jersey, Alderney, Herm and Sark.

Events include cocktail mixology, afternoon teas, live cooking shows, markets, fine dining, beer and cider tastings, and special food workshops for children.

Prestige Holidays has a range of packages by air and ferry to coincide with the festival, with prices starting at £372pp for three nights. prestigeholidays.co.uk visitguernsey.com
