Answer 5

They think you mean Italy! There isn't really that much in Scilly, unless you like beaches, cycling and walking. Also boat trips to other islands in the group. I've been there on day trips, but never stayed. Accommodation is expensive, I would suggest you try to find somewhere in the capital, Hughtown. Don't go to the other islands to stay, there's nothing there re restaurants, etc. Even Hughtown doesn't have all that much choice.

As far as a nice area to stay? None of the islands are big enough to have much variation. It's a case of if you can find anywhere. All are scenic.

I would recommend you take the daily boat trip to Tresco to see the beautiful tropical garden, but it's a lot of walking. Sometimes a tractor meets the boat, but no other transport.
