The Isles of Scilly
England’s Enchanting Archipelago
Outstandingly beautiful, uncrowded and unspoilt, the Isles of Scilly lie just off the coast of Cornwall but are a world apart in every way. A natural wonder, like a cluster of precious ocean jewels, where nature thrives and the soul is inspired.
Everything looks and feels quite different on Scilly – simpler, kinder, more innocent. Life moves at an easier pace. So with the space and freedom to do everything, or nothing – our enchanting archipelago guarantees a magical, unforgettable experience. Join us for the purest of island escapes.
St. Mary’s
St. Mary’s is the Isles of Scilly’s largest island (population 1,800) and the gateway to the rest of the islands. Covering an area a little more than 6 square miles, it’s still not exactly bustling but with its air and sea links, it’s more than likely to be your first port of call when you visit.
Hugh Town is the central hub with its cluster of shops, churches, post office, cafés, galleries, restaurants and pubs. It has three lovely beaches in very close proximity – Porthcressa with a children’s play area close by; Town Beach, a perfect spot to watch the comings and goings on the Quay; and Porthmellon which also hosts the Sailing Centre.
