The Flying Boat Club had a shaky start but then improved immensely and it has been a favourite place for family or friends celebrations as well as coffee, lunch and dinner. The location is hard to beat, especially when one can sit outside on the comfortable garden furniture on a lovely sunny day, but the indoor seating and ambience are... More

We stayed at one of the FBC houses for a week in September 2012. The experience was exactly as promised - beautiful house, well furnished , and with original art works throughout. We ate at the FBC clubhouse, The new "Ruin" restaurant , and at the New Inn, all to high standards. We hired bikes as a marginally quicker way... More

This was our second visit to the Scilly Isles and we returned to The Flying Boat Club on Tresco. This time we flew Southampton to St Marys and then boat to Tresco. It all worked like a dream. One week's stay saw a mixture of sunshine and showers but it was lovely. Holed up in our lovely cottage or out... More

We needed to get away for a short-break, and booked the flying boatclub winter deal. Helicopter / self catering house / access to tresco gardens / and bike hire included. It was perfection. Weather was good for November. Beaches amazing. The house was lovely, very new england style. We really enjoyed exploring the island on the bikes (no cars). It... More

We ate at the Flying Boat Club restaurant four or five times during a two-week stay on Tresco, and were impressed every time. The food was the best we had on the island, and noticeably better than at the Island Hotel. Best of all though was the service - absolutely charming and friendly, but never over-familiar. The manageress was knowledgeable... More

Stayed in The Flying Boat Clubs Sophie cottage for my brothers wedding. Once we arrived on Tresco we were picked up with all our luggage from the small harbour wall and taken direct to the cottage. On entering we were met with an excellently equipped and fabulously clean cottage overlooking a beach with its small garden (not that you need... More

Having come to Tresco for the last eight years we decided this year to stay in one of the new Flying Boat Club Cottages, Endeavour. We were amazed at the high standard of decor, with everything you could possibly need. We had access to the new spa facilities which were wonderful, a swimming pool, sauna and gym, a real treat....
