We are a Visit England Accredited Hotel with rooms situated throughout 4 floors. The hotel has no lift due to the grade 2 listed building status meaning we can't make alterations to install one. We will of course, help with luggage though.

Our food is traditional and cooked using fresh produce of fish, meats, vegetables & dairy sourced from Scilly & Cornwall where possible. Our style is not nouvelle cuisine or a fancy Michelin Star type restaurant.

Our experienced staff offer excellent & attentive service, far beyond the normal expectations for a 2 star rated hotel

Our swimming pool is 8 metres x 4 metres and so neither small, or Olympic size! An unusual extra facility compared to even many other hotels. Its size is governed by available space, and is covered in and heated.

Our rooms are comfortable & furnished to the same standard. All are en suite with either bath, shower or both, and some are compact, hence the special offer lower tariff for these.

The hotel is situated in the centre of Hugh Town, at the quieter side and is ideally positioned for easy access to the harbour for inter island boats to the inhabited islands of Tresco, Bryher, St Agnes & St Martins.

I try to post regular photographs of the islands, and you can see more of the hotel in the photo galleries on the right hand side of the page.

Guest Photograph of Bryher

One of our guests who has stayed with us several times has emailed in a photograph from their visit last year. It was taken on Bryher and shows the stacks or cairns of rocks carefully placed on top of the wooden posts along the coast by Popplestones. These cairns are quite popular around the islands on pebbly shores. As the summer progresses, more and more appear as visitors add their rock art to the collections.
Credit for the photograph goes to Mr Mike Prior from Trowbridge in Wiltshire ...I don't think he made all of these stacks, unless he had an hour or so to while away!?
