Location

Steval is located at the west end of the historic Garrison above Hugh Town on St Mary’s, the largest of the Isles of Scilly. Sitting in magnificent isolation, the cottage overlooks St Agnes and the other off islands of Bryher, Samson and Tresco.

The Isles of Scilly is an ideal location for both relaxed and active holidays, with miles of coastal walks and cycle trails to explore. Boats run regularly between St Mary’s and the other islands, with some also offering scenic tours and wildlife-spotting trips.
