Kempt Tower, originally a Martello tower, is perfect for a family holiday in Jersey, sleeping up to 12 guests in an open-plan living space. The Tower sits in St Ouen’s Bay and dates from 1864. It has been sympathetically restored and boasts an impressive vaulted ceiling and original stonework. It has a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable lounge area with flat screen TV (with Freesat), a spacious dining area and a fantastic roof terrace with 360-degree views across the bay.

The Tower sits in Jersey’s National Park and the beach with restaurants and bars is only a short walk away. If you’re looking for an outdoor adventure, there are several surf schools nearby and you can also follow the picturesque paths weaving through Jersey’s wetland nature reserve and sand dunes.
