About Evergreen Cottage

Evergreen Cottage is accommodation on The Parade in Hugh Town, on the Isles of Scilly. It sits in a built up part of the island, so visitors are near local services and the harbour. Because the address is central, many people use it as a base for walking and day trips. The property is a guest house, which means shorter stays and holiday breaks are common. Also, the phone number is on this listing for direct enquiries. Visitors should contact the cottage to confirm what is available during their stay.

Staying in Hugh Town

Hugh Town is the main settlement on St Mary’s, the largest of the Isles of Scilly. Evergreen Cottage is on The Parade, a road close to the harbour and quay. Then, from this position, the shops, places to eat and boat departures are only a short walk away. Because island transport runs to a set schedule, staying near the quay helps with early trips to the off islands. Also, the coastal paths south of Hugh Town lead to beaches and headlands. Visitors who prefer a simple day can walk to the Garrison or follow the shore towards Old Town.

Nearby places and planning

Several small businesses operate within walking distance of the cottage. Bourdeaux Shop, Pelistry Cottage, The Foredeck, Rat Bags Canvas Shop, Tamarisk Gallery, Lew’s Place and 1 Harbour View are all nearby. These names reflect the mix of shops, services and holiday lets found around Hugh Town. Also, because the Isles of Scilly are small, visitors often move between the harbour, the town centre and the coast several times a day. Staying at Evergreen Cottage on The Parade means the return walk is short. Visitors can head out early, come back for a rest, then go out again for an evening walk along the harbour. A day on St Mary’s usually includes a boat view, a beach stop and a walk through the lanes, all within easy reach of the cottage.
