Tresco: Britain’s Best-Kept Secret?

Looking completely removed from the rest of the British coast and lying only 28 miles off the Cornish mainland is one of Britain’s best-kept secrets. Arriving by air you’d be forgiven for believing you were touching down in the Caribbean. But there is far more than meets the eye when it comes to this subtropical paradise.

Standing out from Scilly’s other isles, Tresco is unique: Nowhere else can you experience granite outcrops, rugged castles, windswept heathlands, sheltered fields, expansive wetlands, beautiful shell beaches and a complex flora-rich sand dune system on one shore. Not to mention the botanic mastery that is the island’s Abbey Gardens, an all-year-round blooming delight! This combination has resulted in Tresco becoming an important wildlife haven where three Sites of Special Scientific Interest have been created and a Red Squirrel breeding programme established.

As you can see, Tresco is packed with delight. So, this year, put down your passport, pack a camera and get ready to stay in 4* inns as you head off on a Great British holiday like no other.
