YOUR LOCAL HOLIDAY GUIDE
Things to do in Isles of Scilly
St Mary’s
St Mary’s is a starting point for coastal walks and the streets around Hugh Town. Choose a manageable route and leave time for practical shopping rather than treating arrival day as a full island tour.
Tresco’s gardens
Tresco Abbey Garden is a distinctive island attraction. Check garden entry and the boat connection together, allowing for the fact that inter-island travel is a separate part of the outing.
The smaller islands
St Martin’s, Bryher and St Agnes each offer different walks and shorelines. Pick an island according to current boat services and conditions rather than expecting to fit all of them into one day.
Local shops, food & places to browse
Hugh Town is a practical centre for provisions and island businesses. Smaller-island shops may have limited or seasonal hours, so plan food shopping around where you are staying and travelling.
Planning your holiday in Isles of Scilly
Confirm transport, luggage arrangements and local connections before committing to accommodation. Boats and flights are weather-sensitive, and island services differ from those of a large mainland resort.
Choosing where to stay
Read the actual advert carefully: this guide does not imply that caravans or lodges are currently available on every island.
Before you book, check the advert’s address, sleeping arrangements, park facilities and any extra charges with the owner. Use the search filters for features such as decking, a hot tub or a washing machine, and park facilities such as a pool or clubhouse.
