Synopsis

The Isles of Scilly lie just forty-six kilometres from Land's End but, standing on a Scillonian beach with the sparking turquoise water around your ankles and the white sand between your toes, you might easily be on a desert island. Every headland and hill is crowned with a granite carn and almost every carn is crowned with a prehistoric tomb. Between the islands and beneath the sea there are traces of old field walls and huts, the seaweed-covered remnants of the Lost Land of Lyonesse.
