    This cabin and shepherds hut complex is out of the way for private travellers to Scilly and hikers to Mounts View. Very quiet indeed. Locals on the way to badminton gave me a lift. Proper old Cornwall in a farming setting. No chip shop, minibar, swimming pool, no smoking area, no hassle. Great if you are driving.
