Bell Rock Hotel, St Mary’s
Uncrowded, beautiful, and unspoilt, the Isles of Scilly lie just off the coast of Cornwall, but feel like a world away from the mainland. On this magical break we explore the largest island of this charming archipelago, St Mary’s, which has a fascinating history stretching back to the Bronze Age. From discovering the hidden treasures and incredible historic sites to enjoying the spectacular beaches, there is plenty to do here. We also venture to Tresco and experience its sub-tropical splendour with a visit to the island’s world-famous gardens.
Day 2 Ferry to the Isles of Scilly We travel to Penzance to catch the ferry to St Mary’s. In the afternoon, we enjoy a short coach tour which introduces us to the beautiful island of St Mary’s and helps us get our bearings. Sit back and relax whilst we step back in time and explore the largest island with its own beautiful beach, nature reserve and Old Town Church along with shops, bars and cafés. Later, we check in to the Bell Rock Hotel, our base for the next four nights.

Here we explore the glorious Tresco Abbey Garden, a horticultural paradise where some 20,000 exotic species from 80 countries thrive in the sub-tropical climate. Originally established as a private garden in the 19th century by island owner Augustus Smith, the diversity of plant life found within the garden is as extraordinary as it is unique.
