If you arrive on the Scillonian it’s just a 5 minute walk to the house (go through the town, bearing left at the first fork (past Bordeaux and The Galley), and then bearing to the right of the park (past the Town Hall). The house will be on your right, just opposite the end of the park. Make sure that you have labelled all your luggage with “Wingletang, St Mary’s” and it will magically arrive at the house later in the day delivered by the Island Carriers who will leave a note with a small fee to pay, and information on how to book a collection for your return journey.
