Blog home / Tennerfest: Plan Your Channel Island Walk
Each year the 1st of October marks the start of the Channel Island's famous Tennerfest Food Festival.
It's a 6-week festival that celebrates food by offering fixed price menus from £10.
Plan your walking holiday along the
Channel Island Way in October (trips run until the end of the month) and add some extra value to your UK island break. You'll have access to the finest food of the islands at very affordable prices. A three-course menu starts from £10 per head, then there are options for £12.50, £15, £17.50 and £20. The choice is plenty: over 150 hotels, restaurants, pubs and cafes take part in the festival each year. Venues sell out weeks in advance, so plan your walking holiday early.
Take a relaxing lunch break from your walk or plan for an evening meal to enjoy Guernsey’s traditional, distinctly Anglo-French cuisine. For a change, menus based on Chinese, Indian, Italian and other traditional flavours will be available as well.
The walking conditions in October are excellent with temperatures ranging between 5-18 degrees Celsius (41-46 F) and the islands have more sunshine hours than other parts of the UK.
Will you go for the traditional local favourites such as
bean jar and
gâche melée? Or will you opt for the more general fish 'n chips?
See you this October!
