Scilly Isles

   

A truly unique holiday experience and a step back in time

Something for everyone!

Five inhabited islands all with their own unique charm and character. Beautifully unspoilt and with very little traffic the outdoor life is there for all ages to enjoy. Empty white sandy beaches and turquoise seas, nature trails and ever changing views, the islands are perfect for couples, singles and families alike for a short break or longer stay.

Getting around by boat is the essence of a holiday on the islands. Private jet boats, glass bottomed vessels and regular boat services will provide you with sightseeing and island hopping opportunities. Make sure you don’t leave without visiting the seals on the Eastern Isles and Western rocks.

Scilly is one of the safest communities left in Britain today. The crime rate is virtually non-existent and the magistrates meet once every 3 months if required! For golfers there is a 9 hole 18 tee course on St Mary’s and for shoppers there is a wide
variety of shops, galleries, craft centres and gift shops to suit most tastes and budgets. Eating out is varied with quality restaurants on the islands with seafood an obvious speciality. For more general information and how to get there click here.

St Mary’s

Our progamme focuses mainly on St Mary’s the largest and most vibrant of the five islands.The hotels are located in the islands capital, Hugh Town, an ideal base to enjoy mile upon mile of coastal paths and nature trails or to visit the “off ” islands, all of which are accessible from the quay.

As well as the energetic outdoor pursuits, St Mary’s has a wealth of traditional pubs, restaurants and cafes in which to relax and unwind. Expect a warm welcome from the locals as they proudly share St Mary’s the natural “Hub” of The Isles of Scilly.

We feature five hotels here but will willingly book other properties including Bed & Breakfast Guest Houses.  Obviously many of establishments are small so some flexibility in dates or choice of accomodation may be required.
