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.

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 Review Extracted From TripAdvisor

“Great short break”

Reviewed 19 March 2012 NEW 1person found this review helpful

We booked a short pre-season break in St Marys, IoS, to celebrate my wife's birthday. From my first enquiry, through the booking and service during our stay, everything was very personal and perfect. The excellent breakfast sets you up for a good day's walking round the islands. We'll be back....!

Room Tip: Room 4 offers a good size double bedroom, generous bathroom (with bath) and views of the boats in th...

Monday 20th March 2012

The hotel opened officially on Friday 16th March for the full dinner tariff, and the split shifts now enable me to get out in the day time for a walk.
I enjoyed a walk around the Garrison on Monday afternoon, and snapped a couple of pictures on my phone. The sun was bright and the skies were blue. Flowers are starting to bloom and there were black & grey rabbits hopping about. All in all, a beautiful afternoon!

Good News! Helicopters Are To Stay At Penzance for 2012 Season

It is very welcome news to report that British International Helicopters have secured their present site in Eastern Green, Penzance for the 2012 season. They have negotiated with Sainsbury's to lease the land back until the 31st October 2012.
This is obviously very good news for visitors to the islands.

November 2011

It's been a while since I've posted anything, so I thought I had better give a quick update with a few piccies for good measure.

The hotel is now closed for the winter season, and will re-open again on Monday 12th March 2012. Don't forget our March offer for 2012, of just £189 per person, for a 3 night break including dinner, room & breakfast. Any further, night's tariff will be held pro-rata at £63 per person, per night.

During this winter, there will be a few goings on in the hotel for decorating etc. There's always something to do! For example, as I type this, Shirley is busy painting the ladies cloakroom. Both the gents & the ladies have been re-papered, and are being painted a lighter, fresher colour. The gents is also having new flooring.
...Plenty of other things going on too, so the sooner I wrap up this post, the sooner and can get myself covered in paint!

Enough of my waffle.... here's some Scilly pics from this last week.
