DBB on the Isles, room only first night in Camborne, B&B last night in Camborne
Single person supplement £299
Renowned for their beautiful, white, sandy beaches, turquoise water, peace and quiet, tame birds and rare plants, as well as plants which won’t normally grow in the UK (flourishing due to Scilly’s lovely temperate climate) the Isles of Scilly are a must-visit destination!
Transport between the islands is by boat and most of the islands themselves only have a few cars for residents to move their shopping from the quayside to their houses. Life proceeds at a lovely, leisurely pace.
We will sail to the Isles on the Scillonian for the journey to the islands’ capital, St Mary’s, where Sir Harold Wilson had a home and is now buried. Here, we then take a local boat to St Martin’s, to stay in the 4-star Karma Hotel on a dinner, bed and breakfast basis.
For convenience, once your luggage is loaded onto the Scillonian ferry at Penzance, you will not see it again until you are in your room on St Martin’s.
Our hotel is right on one of the island’s two quaysides, overlooking gorgeous beaches and fabulous islets, and at night it is so dark that, on a clear night, you can see the heavens in a way you can normally only dream of.
Each day there will be a transfer boat to other islands and the capital, St Mary’s, which is like a large village.
Please note, you must be able to walk comfortably for at least a mile to get the most from this holiday.
