Flying Boat Club
Luxurious self-catering cottages at the Flying Boat Club on Tresco, with indoor pool, spa, gym, and tennis court!
The Flying Boat Club is situated on the beach at New Grimsby, Tresco. All the houses are beautifully furnished with oak flooring, original artwork throughout and sea views from the living rooms and master bedrooms with balconies. Each house has a range-style cooker, American fridge-freezer with ice-maker, wi-fi broadband, digital TV with 9 channels including 2 premium sports channels, and also has its own patio with barbeque and beach access.
Cottage Guests have membership of the Flying Boat Club with indoor pool, steam room, sauna, Jacuzzi, gym and tennis courts, plus free access to Tresco Abbey Garden.
Whether you have come with your family or with an extended group of driends for a boating holiday in the UK you are assured of a unique and relaxed holiday at one of the most spectacular locations in Europe. Royal Naval Air Station Tresco's flying-boats flew against German submarines in the Western Approaches from 1916-18 in the Great War. Today the waterfront site of the old Air Station is home to Tresco's stylish Flying Boat Club. Rent one of the 12 beachfront houses and you'll be a member of the boating holiday club with its restaurant and bar. Also on site is the indoor swimming-pool, gym, steam-room, Jacuzzi and treatment rooms. Play on one of two tournament-quality tennis courts, have a round at the Isles of Scilly Golf Club or enjoy a stroll in the famous Abbey Garden.
All members enjoy the use of The Flying Boat Club House during their week. The Club is situated next to the beachfront houses and has views across the New Grimsby harbour. The Club is open for breakfast through to dinner and has been created as a place where members can entertain their guests and meet other members. The Club has a quiet ambience. It has a collection of fine art, and provides a comfortable environment in which to read the papers, have an espresso, a drink or a meal. In summer there is a secluded walled garden in which to sit, and in winter a friendly log-fire. The Club is on two levels with a restaurant upstairs and the Wardroom bar downstairs.
