‘‘OF the four Channel Islands Jersey is the prettiest,’’ according to Victor Hugo who began writing his epic novel Les Misérables during his exile to the island in 1853. Jersey’s dramatic 45-mile shoreline with its storm-lashed caves and rugged cliff paths, its dolmens and Druidic monuments, served as inspiration for Hugo’s classic love story.
To write your own romance, Planet suggests booking Longueville Manor’s two-night Valentine’s Break. From £220 per night (2 sharing) the Islands’ only Relais & Châteaux property is offering accommodation, car hire and pink Champagne and chocolates on arrival and a dozen red roses in your room on Valentine’s Night. Also included are full English breakfast each day, Longueville’s seven-course Discovery menu on one evening and a three-course à la carte dinner on the other.
