  • The Guide 2015
    THE GUIDE 2015 ST. MARY’S TRESCO ST. MARTIN’S BRYHER ST. AGNES A LIFETIME'S LOVE AFFAIR FOREWORD BY VALERIE SINGLETON, TRAVEL WRITER, TV PRESENTER (AND ONE TIME BLUE PETER LEGEND) The Isles of Scilly definitely catch at people’s hearts. Those who have never been are longing to go. Those who have, want to return and many do - again and again. Honeymoons, holidays and childhood vacations, inevitably lead to a lifetime’s love affair. Several friends were very envious of my visit. There really is only one way to see the different islands properly and that’s on foot. It’s only on the largest islands of St. Mary’s and Tresco that it’s possible to hire a golf buggy or a bike. The lack of vehicles on the other islands (except for deliveries) is one of the joys of being there. The coastal paths are easy to follow but my purchase of small foldable walking maps from the delightful and absorbing museum on St. Mary’s (well worth a couple of hours) meant I missed nothing on the way. The beaches are exquisite; with vast expanses of glorious white sand and when I was there, deliciously empty. The views of other islands as I walked were ever changing as was the weather. Adding to the charm and unexpectedness of the landscape. Each island has its own character and I loved deciding at a moment’s notice which one I would visit that day and hopping on a boat at the quayside. Would it be Tresco, Brhyer, St.

    PDZ:18 Isles of Scilly Management Area 42 Management Area 43 Management Area 44 Management Area 45 Management Area 46 St Martin’s from the air Isles of Scilly The Isles of Scilly is an archipelago of around 140 islands that emerge from the Atlantic around 45km west of Land’s End, formed from the remnants of an upstanding granite landform linked to Cornwall. Of the 140 islands the five main inhabited islands are considered within the SMP and this Policy Development Zone area. These islands are: • St Mary’s • Tresco • Bryher • St Martin’s • St Agnes The very location of Scilly makes it a unique place to live or to visit. All of the islands display an extremely strong sense of community and this cohesion and sense of identity within the local population could be seen as one of Scilly’s greatest assets. Cornwall and Isles of Scilly SMP2 Final Report Chapter 4 PDZ18 1 February 2011 The archipelago combines areas of wild, exposed coastline, open to the full energy of the Atlantic, with extremely sheltered nearshore areas of white sand and shallow blue seas more reminiscent of a tropical location than the UK. The entire archipelago is owned by the Duchy of Cornwall although there are residential parts of St Mary’s which are held by private landowners and the Island of Tresco is wholly leased to another organisation. The largest inhabited island is St Mary’s which is home to the main settlement of the islands, Hugh Town. Hugh Town is built for the most part on a sandy iszmuth which connects the two granite islands that form St Mary’s.

Scilly is one of those places where you can stand on a beach with the breeze on your face and just feel good. You feel alive, and you feel your place on the planet in a different way. It feels more like being on a remote island in the Pacific than a destination just off the Cornish coast. The scenery is stunning, and the flora and fauna are incredible, but it’s not just about the islands for me - its the people that make Scilly so special.
