An historic Victorian Fort on Alderney in the Channel Islands. Located on a rocky peninsular, the Fort has exceptional views of the distant horizons. This makes the Fort an excellent venue for unique summer soirées, beach weddings and memorable events with friends and family
Events
Our unique event spaces offer a raw rustic chic aesthetic for all occasions from intimate gatherings to major celebrations and have played host to the Alderney Performing Arts Festival and popular L’Etoc Après Beach Bar over the past 12 years
To support the smooth execution of your event, we can offer advice to let you benefit from our extensive experience and local knowledge. Due to the unpredictable nature of Alderney’s winter weather, we are hesitant to accept bookings for outdoor events from October to April
History
Chateau L’Etoc was built on an historic Neolithic burial site dating back to 4300 BC, located on the most northerly point in the Channel Islands. Following a British defence investigation in 1842, ‘Harbours of Refuge’ were commissioned by the Commander of the Forces the 1st Duke of Wellington, Arthur Wellesley, in Alderney and Jersey. In total 13 forts were built on Alderney, including Chateau L’Etoc. Since being completed in 1853, Chateau L’Etoc has been occupied by British and then German troops during the island’s occupation
