Welcome

Welcome to May Butterflies Holiday Let and the beautiful Isles of Scilly.

If you have never visited before then you are in for a treat; for those that have then you know all about this magical place. An archipelago of the southwest tip of Cornwall.

There is no place like it with the islands covered in heathland and fringed by stunning sandy beaches. The water is a luminous turquoise and crystal clear, ideal for diving to see the myriad of marine life. Breathtaking coastal walks, messing about on boats to and from the other islands which all have their own distinctive uniqueness.

There are plenty of places to eat whatever your tastes, some with seascapes to enjoy a drink or two!!!

Whatever your planning on doing whilst here you won’t be short of things todo. You’ll find like us, that the Isles of Scilly is captivating and will bring youback time and time again.

Scilly has a slower pace of life ideal to unwind from the stresses of everyday life that will soon be forgotten as you settle into this spellbinding place; a gentle reminder of times gone by.

We first visited 15 years ago and were hooked. Although working in the travel industry for 20 years and being lucky enough to travel all over the world, nothing can compare to Scilly.

So, we finally took the plunge and bought a property as our future home, just around the corner (30 yards) from Porthcressa Beach, where you can dine at Dibble and Grub and take in the glorious sunsets.

May Butterflies is also close to the main street of St Marys, ideal for all your provisions. A gentle stroll down the main street will take you to the harbour to catch aboat for a day’s adventure off islands. We have stayed in many self-catering places over the years and would like to think we have an insight into what makes a holiday great. It is, after all, our home too, so we’ve made it relaxed, well equipped and atmospheric enough to enhance your stay. Oh! And in case you’re wondering why ‘May Butterflies’? well May after mywonderful Mum and Butterflies to signify new beginnings. Maybe you’ll have a new beginning of your own?

Please look round the website for all the information you’ll need to make your holiday.

Happy Holidays on Scilly Warmest Regards Pauline
