Oatlands is out for a weekly happening

OATLANDS’ new owner plans to hold an event every weekend and open a covered market selling Guernsey produce.

Peter Kaufman-Kent (pictured), who bought the complex two months ago, said he had set manager Martyn Hallett the challenge of getting one event on the showgrounds every weekend.

‘Eventually people will say at the weekend: “We might as well go to Oatlands, they will have something on”.’

Oatlands recently hosted a Barclays Premier Trophy tour with a tournament for children and a Mini car show. It is now planning dog training, horse and Guernsey goat shows and looking into putting on a big screen for next year’s Olympic Games.
