| The Fleur du Jardin, contrary to its literal translation, is not “The Flower of the Garden” but a breed of internationally acclaimed Guernsey cows!!
In the reception of the “Fleur” is a descriptive of how the “Fleur” got its name. The Fleur du Jardin xii was a breeding cow of some repute and we would like to think we have maintained that reputation, be it now of culinary hospitality and an envied quality of product.
We are what you see, relaxed and informal with a hint of the unusual. The restaurant at Fleur Du Jardin is well known locally and has many awards attributed to it. The head chef, Kelvin Clark, maintains a very high standard and concentrates on using as much local produce as possible. He uses locally bred beef and pork from the renowned "Meadow Croft Farm", and it is not unusual to see a local fisherman dragging a 15lb sea bass through to the kitchen for delivery to the table. Guernsey is lucky to be blessed with an abundance of local sea stock and the Fleur takes full advantage of these natural resources.
The bar manager, Adam, takes great pride in maintaining the awards and inclusions in CAMRA Good Beer Guides by constantly changing the selection of real ales. This, together with a carefully prepared wine list, makes for a suitably rewarding culinary experience.
The hotel's superb solar heated swimming pool, set in a quiet corner of the private and spacious grounds, is reserved exclusively for the use of guests.
During the summer, the gardens provide a peaceful haven from the outside world. Take a gentle stroll or find yourself a comfortable chair in which to read that book you've never quite found the time for.
Whether you travel over with your own car or hire one here, there's no shortage of space in the Fleur's large car park.
For those who want to get away from the motor car, buses stop regularly outside the hotel, or you can hire a bicycle and explore those parts of the island other forms of transport have difficulty in reaching. Room Details

The furniture has been chosen carefully by the owners, with strong influences of "shabby chic", with a little contemporary thrown in to add a touch of luxury. There is also an adjoining double room with "wet room" should you wish to take the whole loft for a larger gathering.
