The southern part of Tresco has some lovely beaches on the SE side but I was more interested in Oliver's Battery.

In the Spring of 2017 I took a trip to the beautiful little island of Tresco in the Scilly Isles for a week's Guitar Retreat. It was a bit of a mammoth journey from Edinburgh, stopping in Gloucester and Bude before heading to Land's End and a flight to St. Mary's Airport a mini-bus to St Mary's Port a jet-boat to New Grimsby on Tresco and finally a wee golf buggy to the hotel.

Arthur's Seat is an ancient extinct volcano that is the main peak of the group of hills in Edinburgh, Scotland, which form most of Holyrood Park. Fantastic views across Edinburgh to Firth of Forth, Forth Bridges, Fife, East Lothian and Midlothian. On a good day it is possible to see Ben Lomond, the southernmost Munro.
