Regulars to Scilly will no doubt remember Scillonian, John Hicks who used to run the boat Swordfish II with the St Mary's Boatman's Association before running it as an independent.
John has now taken over the Smugglers Inn at the Airways Hotel, which is situated in prime location for passengers travelling through Newquay Airport. He can also offer parking and pickups/drop offs by prior arrangement.
John along with his partner are working hard to refurb after taking on a previously unloved establishment. Through these winter months and quieter season, it is the best time to take on such projects. You are sure to receive a warm welcome if you decide to stopover.
Meals are available in the evenings and breakfast can be accommodated to fit in with early flights.

Blog Details
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.
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.
