Sark is all booked up as festival attracts hundreds

SARK will benefit from a boost in business thanks to the Sark Folk Festival.

All 540 of the island's guest beds, which covers all types of accommodation, have been booked out.

Hoteliers and guesthouse owners said they have been fully booked for the three-day event – taking place on the weekend of 1, 2 and 3 July – since before Christmas.

Clos de Vaul Creux guesthouse owner Leigh Gibbons said she has been booked up since October.
