“There were a few reasons why we chose Guernsey over other jurisdictions; the lifestyle and cultural values we read about prior to moving here were a definite draw; the more temperate climate was also an advantage; the tax situation here meant our financial plans for retirement became more attractive and that was a very significant advantage; functioning Public Services was also a bonus – Guernsey isn’t perfect, but generally things work pretty well, and that makes life easier and less stressful.”

“Living in Guernsey has improved our work/life balance by far. Because everything is on your doorstep or a very short drive away, you can get so much done in a short space of time instead of wasting time in the car.  I can walk the dogs, go for swim and do a food shop all before starting on the emails!  Being able to walk by the sea really sets you up for the day.”

“There is always paperwork to do in life, but the relocation process has been relatively seamless and staff within the States of Guernsey departments helped us as well as the team at Locate Guernsey who provided support and helpful guidance.  Having initially rented on the island we are now looking forward to finding our new home.”

“From our previous visit we were aware of some of Guernsey's quirks; the extremely narrow roads, the unreliability of inter-island transport at certain times of the year, the higher cost of living etc. What we weren't expecting were the many hidden delights one finds on such a small island. Substantial retail shops tucked away in obscure country lanes, interesting and unusual local businesses, restaurants in unexpected and out-of-the-way places. We keep discovering such things.”

“The experience of moving across to Guernsey has been very straightforward and we are so pleased we made the move.   We have found the relaxed island lifestyle we desired in our retirement on the island of Guernsey, and we will not tire of watching the stunning sunsets on the west coast sipping a chilled white wine!”
