La Sablonnerie

La Sablonnerie is a hotel and restaurant in Sark, in the Channel Islands. It is located in Little Sark, in an old 16th century farmhouse with gardens. Owned by Elizabeth Perree, the hotel contains 15 double rooms, 6 single rooms and one suite. The 2002 Good Hotel Guide describes the hotel as "Long, low and white-walled... a stylish, idiosyncratic little hotel, much admired." The restaurant is noted for its seafood dishes (especially lobster) and cream teas.

The hotel offers nearby access to the most secluded features of the island including the natural tidal bathing pools, caves and walks to the nearby historic silver mines, caves and scrambles leading down to the sea.
