channel islands, HOW MUCH? (1 Viewer)

[Welsh girl]

We booked a ferry to go to Jersey in the channel islands from St malo, €442 return, nil for the permit.
Ok we thought as we've not paid a lot on sites recently and I always wanted to have a look at Jersey.
On contacting the campsite initially they said price was £161, they now say the cost is £225 for the week.
We have to use a campsite there apparently, the permit permits us to drive round the island as long as we return to a booked campsite.
I feel a bit miffed that they now decide after booking a ferry to put the price up saying we needed a bigger pitch ad we are 6.5 mtrs.
But hey Ho, you can't take it with you.
The island is 9 miles wide by 5 miles long so shouldn't take us long to discover ALL the island.

It's probably cheaper to take an off peak offer and fly with hotel included etc then to take your van to Jersey .

There are some VERY narrow lanes on much of Jersey, you may not get to see all of it !

At those kind of prices, I'll give it a miss until lotto numbers come up.

If it's like Guernsey to travel on then take it steady. We took our panel van to Guernsey and there is a reason why the kerbs at the side of the road are very low and that is so you can get up them easy to avoid oncoming cars.
