Vale
Vale in the north of Guernsey has a distinct character all of its own. Property buyers often cite the peace of mind of knowing that nothing will ever be allowed to be built on L’Ancresse Common. In some ways, this green space is the lungs of the island. The air is always clear and the beaches are beautiful. Golfers are naturally drawn to life on the edge of its links. Boaters who want to avoid the bustle of Town, find the northern Beaucette Marina a tranquil place in which to linger
Forest
Forest is the highest parish on the island, with altitudes of up to about 100 m. The only low areas are at the coast, where there are steep cliffs. Some of the cliff settings and plots in these parts of the island enjoy some of the most dramatic scenery found anywhere.
Torteval
Torteval is the smallest of the ten parishes. Split in two by the parish of St Pierre du Bois, the main part is known as Torteval and the detached part as Pleinmont - Torteval.
