Star Castle
St Mary's, Isles Of Scilly
An Elizabethan fortress house within star-shaped defensive walls is run by the Francis family as a welcoming hotel, with atmospheric castle rooms, dog-friendly, cottage-style garden accommodation, atmospheric dungeon bar, and restaurant serving freshly landed fish and seafood.

A tree-lined drive leads to this splendid Victorian Scottish baronial pile and luxury hotel in landscaped grounds, where guests have a choice of opulent suites, and can opt to dine from tasting menus in the dining room looking out to Ailsa Craig or on home-grown produce in a 19th-century glasshouse within the walled kitchen garden.
