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.

St Mary's Harbour

Wednesday 9th January 2013

A quick detour to the Strand to take a few snaps this morning whilst out for breakfast supplies for the hotel. The sun is shining and St Mary's Harbour looking calm and peaceful





Porth Loo

Sunday 6th January 2013

After the heavy rains affecting most of the UK the Porth Loo area of St. Mary's is still heavily watered! There's still water running/draining off the land from higher ground. The ducks are enjoying a full pond... And on the other side of the road to usual, they've got a new pond resort to make the most of! I don't know how long it will take to dry back to normal but it won't be in any hurry that's for sure!





Porthmellon At Low Water

Sunday 6th January 2012

A walk on the sand! Sunday's weather was grey but dry in the afternoon. Ideal for a walk.

The sky was more spectacular a little earlier but still stunning by the time I got a chance to snap a photo on my way to work this morning.

Duck Pond

Sunday 30th December 2012

A walk around the top end of St Mary's on the roads took us past Trenoweth & the very full duck pond. The water running off the land and straight into the pond. I should think there's a waterfall at the end of the stream at Watermill at the moment from the pond's overflow.





Bartholomew's Ledge Breaking Seas

Sunday 30th December 2012

The seas were still breaking on Bartholomew's Ledge today. The wind is still fresh and it made holding my phone still enough to take a photo pretty challenging!

Blustery Garrison

Thursday 27th December 2012

A late lunchtime walk around the Garrison. Blustery with dramatic seas and sky. I had to zoom in on the sea breaking on Bartholomew's Ledge so it's a bit blurred
