    Location excellent with a splendid view of the sunset. Carmen was very helpful. It was only ten minutes walk to the quay to take trips to the other islands.

    Our room was a superb base to explore the archipelago from, when we landed it was a short walk from the airport past fields full of the joys and flowers of spring, and was an easy walk into Hugh Town for food and boats to the other islands. Having...

Gorgeous views over Hugh Town and a sea view towards the uninhabited island of Samson to watch lovely evening sun sets (best sunsets are April to August). Close to coastal walks, beaches, restaurants, cafe's and local shops. Each of the two studio rooms offer King size beds, ensuite, dining table and comfy seating to relax on. Outside guest seating / picnic table with a sea view too. Close to all amenities and the quay. Appletree is also surrounded by shipwreck artefacts discovered by her husband, Todd Stevens a scuba diver/ship wreck hunter and ship wreck historian. Appletree is an equal short distance from 4 great beaches: only 5 -7minutes or so walk. All have very clean Atlantic sea to play in/on too: swim/snorkel/splash/kayak/sail etc. The close coastal paths have either really interesting views across the islands or you may see seals, dolphins or whales pass by or go inland to see wildlife/wild flowers etc. Each room has a small kitchenette with microwave/fridge/toaster etc. Book direct for unbeatable prices not found online. On winter breaks you can watch the stormy seas from the comfort of your warm studio room after a bracing coastal stroll. Take time out to Re...
Todd and Carmen Steven are the owners of Appletree. Meeting in 2001 through their love of scuba diving. Todd was a joiner by trade and now is taking it easier but still a keen scuba diver - spending his spare time searching for undiscovered shipwrecks. He has also written 3 books on shipwrecks he has discovered and one index book of shipwrecks around the Isles of Scilly. Carmen is locally born and is now a keen all year round sea swimmer and can advise on many safe swimming bays. She also loves to dog walk and identify wild flowers. We both wish to give you a warm welcome and make your holiday as comfortable as possible. Book direct for unbeatable prices not found online.
The Isles of Scilly lie just off the coast of Cornwall but are a world apart in every way. A natural wonder, like a cluster of precious ocean jewels, where nature thrives and the soul is inspired. Everything looks and feels quite different on Scilly - simpler, kinder, more innocent. Life moves at an easier pace. So with the space and freedom to do everything, or nothing - our enchanting archipelago guarantees a magical, unforgettable experience.
