Saumarez Park

Saumarez Park spans extensive grounds featuring formal gardens, open lawns, a duck pond with a Japanese pavilion, and numerous walking paths throughout the property.

The park originated in 1869 when Baron James Saumarez purchased the estate and developed its gardens, including bamboo walks and exotic plant collections from the Far East.

The National Trust of Guernsey Folk and Costume Museum, located within restored farm buildings in the park, displays traditional island life through exhibits of farming and maritime artifacts.

Visitors can access two parking areas: one near the children's playground on Route de Saumarez and another by the pond on Saumarez Lane, with overflow parking at Home Farm Field.

The Victorian Walled Kitchen Garden maintains its original purpose through volunteer gardeners who cultivate fruits, vegetables, and flowers throughout the growing season.
