Open arrival we were made to feel quite unwelcome, it was almost as if we were an inconvenience staying in her hotel. The owner had emailed me 2 days before to say I hadn’t paid for our evening meal, so I paid online immediately, and upon arriving she promptly told us she was not doing us an evening meal because we hadn’t said what we wanted, even though we hadn’t been asked or sent any kind of menu. We were refunded our meal money minus £10 admin fee, for a dinner that was never going to happen anyway. 
Our luggage transfer was not organised even though she had told us check out time, and she knew the boat times but made us feel bad that she hasn’t organised it the night before, when she too busy telling us off for arriving at 4pm, and not 2pm. 
I would recommend checking other places to stay.

Sorry we were an inconvenience.

The host was in contact and made us feel very welcome. The room was spotless and thought given to anything we may require, like cold drinks on arrival, a charging cable, that we may have forgotten and even postcards to post home. We loved that the coffee provided was ground with our own carafe and kettle in the room. The garden was so relaxing and full of life.

Central location with magnificent setting

Had a very comfortable stay in the attic room, Charcoal Roses. Nice bed linen, room was clean and well stocked with toiletries. Leigh was welcoming and helpful. We enjoyed breakfast with wonderful warm bread and home cooked croissants, Guernsey butter, high quality French jams and Sark milk with cereals or a choice of fresh Sark eggs cooked any way.

Comfortable Stay



Hostile and unwelcoming from the get go I cannot express how deeply I feel that you should avoid this place. The room is nice if a little cramped and opens onto the lounge / restaurant. There is also no door on the toilet so say goodbye to any sense of privacy. 

However that is where the exceptionally few niceties stop. The manageress is clearly weary from hosting and should do everyone a favour and just stop. It’s like staying with a strict elderly relative who you dropped in on unannounced, not someone you’ve paid £140+ a night to host you. She has done her very best to ruin a romantic weekend away. She locked an internal door, accused us of having done it, and left a slice of bread and croissant on the floor with a note. When we called her both by phone and shouting “hello” into the house we were ignored, only to find more doors locked proving she had been in the house the whole time. 

The following day we were lucky enough to get breakfast, but she snapped at us constantly, basically threw the plates down. Told us we could have eggs when we were “ready”, when we asked when that might be she said when we had finished the rest of our food. Then threatened to stop serving us altogether. 

She also expressed anger that we had not forewarned her that we were vegetarian. The booking system did not ask and in 2023 Im not in the habit of calling ahead and “warning” of my diet. 

She looked out three mouldy logs which slugs had made their home whilst also telling us to enjoy an “evening by the fire”. When I asked where I could get more should we need it, she said she would bring them in as needed. Spoiler - no more logs arrived. Doesn’t take a wilderness expert to figure out that that’s not enough to last more than an hour, let alone two nights. 

If you do find yourself in the unfortunate position of having wasted money and booking here, seek refuge at the Belair where there are friendly faces and a warm - unlimited - fire to enjoy an evening around. When not out walking the cliffs we hunkered there to avoid any uncomfortable interactions. Too uncomfortable to stay in the place we had spent hundreds on. 

She should be ashamed and either employ someone who knows the meaning of hospitality to run the house for her, or quit entirely. I wish her positivity and healing to recover from whatever event in her life has lead her to be so bitter. 

Had this been my first trip to Sark, I would never return. Luckily there are many sarkees who are grateful and deserving of your custom, I urge you to seek them out. 

Great place, horrible management. Avoid, avoid, avoid!

Great location, friendly host and staff, comfy bed, really clean room, fab breakfast and amazing steak dinner. What more could you ask for?! Thanks to Leigh, Denise and George for making us feel so welcome. We will definitely return on our next trip to Sark.

Great place to stay on Sark

Friendly hostess could not do enough for us Clean comfortable beds. Rooms where clean. Breakfast was lovely. Honest box for drinks. Gardens are lovely. A relaxing place to stay. Location is good. Everything need is at hand for you.

Friendly. Great location 

What an absolutely gorgeous find. 
Leigh was so welcoming on our arrival. 
Our room was very comfortable and had a wonderful powerful shower.
We slept very well, bed was comfortable and the bed linen gorgeous. 
Laying in bed listening to the birds… perfect. 
Breakfast was served in the court yard with views of the garden. Breakfast is between 9 and 10 which is a very civilised time in my view ! 
Beautiful tasty homemade bread, French preserves, croissant and choice of cooked breakfast. Washed down with tea and fruit juice. 
The only downside was that we had to leave. 
Will return very soon

Peace of Heaven

Had a great four days with Leigh at her lovely guest house. She is very attentive. The house is beautiful and I would say vey central to all areas of the beautiful island of Sark
The room we had was comfortable though the bed a bit soft for us. Bedding was very nice 
The breakfasts were good and locally sourced 
All in all a great stay with a really nice lady

Best on Sark

Wonderful stay on Sark in the little gem of Clos de Vaul Creux. 
We arrived on the early ferry to be greeted by Leigh who showed us to our room which was ready for us, an absolute bonus. Lovely bright airy room (Wisteria) with a view of the beautiful garden. Leigh was very helpful and showed us around and pointed out the nice little honesty bar in the guest’s lounge area. We made use of this and the sun loungers in the garden which was relaxing after a day of walking. The bed was very comfortable and we slept well. Breakfast was between 9.00 and 10.00 which makes a nice change not to have to be down early. Breakfast was served in the lovely sunny courtyard with fresh croissants straight from the oven, beautiful French preserves and the nicest bread I have ever had. There was fruit juice, cereal and a good cooked option too which my partner enjoyed. We had a very nice evening meal with Leigh as well. 
Like a lot of small establishments on Sark, the owners work extremely hard and I was very impressed at how Leigh was able to provide us with such a good service. 
The pace of life on Sark is slow, which is why people go there. I enjoyed the pace very much and the fact I could enjoy coffee and croissant at 10.15 without feeling I was in the way as is often the way in larger establishments. 
We hired bikes on the island and Leigh had bike stands in a secure area. Leigh organised for our luggage to be picked up on our final day. 
I would most definitely return and would recommend.

Little Gem

I stopped at clos de cal creux and I deffinately was not disappointed 
From the moment I arrived up until my departure
I was greeted upon arrival by Leigh who. Is a very charming host
Was shown to my room which I could not fault
Break fast the following morning was excellent
I chose to have dinner on my second night
And yet again I was not disappointed
So if you want somewhere to stay on sark look no further than this delightful place
Can’t wait until I visit sark again
Thanks to Leigh and her charming staff
