Where It Is
The Isles of Scilly are a stunning archipelago off the South West tip of Cornwall offering a unique way of life for islanders and visitors alike. Many people visit to escape the commotion of everyday life and the islanders are a strong and friendly community often pulling together to help each other out. Surrounded by nature, the white sands are lapped by the clear Atlantic ocean and the islands are home to many species. The temperate climate encourages a host of flora and fauna to grow and the lush plantlife is more akin to the Mediterranean than the UK. There is much to do on St Marys with it's small but bustling community and the good selection of cafes, restaurants, hotels, banks and shops. You'll also find plenty of galleries, pubs, workshops and a fleet of launches to take you to the other islands. Facilities include a golf course, airport and hospital. St Mary's is the largest of the islands at two and a half miles by one and three-quarter miles. Nine miles of narrow roads link the island and are ideal for walking and cycling. There are fascinating walks and spectacular views, a megalithic village and a heritage centre, sports facilities and safe bathing beaches. The Strand links Carn Thomas with HughTown and runs along the promenade next to the harbour. Carn Thomas Cottage is in a fabulous central position with three beaches very close at hand.
