Veronica Farm

We stayed at Shippen last year for a week for the first time. Jeff and Kris were great hosts, welcoming us from the boat and we had a huge homemade cream tea when we arrived.||The cottage was very pretty, spotless with comfortable beds. The views from the upstairs living room were amazing. We loved watching the boats coming and going everyday. Shippen also has a beautiful garden, we sat out there most days for dinner. (And it's only a 2 minute walk to Kris's fudge stall!) Bryher is a lovely island, very quiet and peaceful. We will be back!

I have been visiting Bryher since the age of 4 ( 30 years ago now). We stay in Shippen now but have also stayed in Hebe and Fernside. All the accommodation is clean and comfy, and the facilities are great, you can get up and make a breakfast with hillside farm eggs, and bacon and freshly made bread from Bryher shop. I love waking up and looking out of the window with views of the fields and the sea. For me it's the best place in the world and Shippen is a home from home.

I was visiting Bryher for the first time in fifty years. I stayed in Hebe, which I believe is smaller than Shippen and attached to the main farm. It is an excellent base for Bryher, centrally-located -- but then again nowhere on Bryher is far. Everything is clean, modern, and with WiFi. It is cozy, appropriate for a couple or (like me) someone traveling solo. When the weather obliged, which it did sometimes, I ate outside at a table just in front. The hosts were helpful with advice, and at each end of my stay by carrying bags to the boat.

Loved every minute, very comfortable, a great welcome. Bryher was stunning, lovely beaches and rugged rocks. Calm seas and wild as well. We were fortunate to have great weather. Left to our own devices but help available when we needed it. Booked again for next year.

Bryher isn't for everyone; if you're looking for 'things to do'- go elsewhere. if you want fantastic scenery, ever-changing sea and sky, lovely friendly people and real peace and quiet, come here.||Veronica Farm is a welcoming place run by welcoming (but not intrusive) people.||Your holiday won't be cheap, but it will be special, and like us, you'll come back again, and again...

We were told about Veronica's fudge & made a point of going to get some. The flavour of the week Rose Geranium Gin - had sold out but Chris the owner sent for some more gin and said she would make us some for the next day, and it was delicious

Veronica Farm, on Bryher, Isles of Scilly is the most welcoming holiday destination ever. It's our 2nd stay here and would happily stay here longer. 10 out of 10.

Just spent a wonderful week at Fernside. Thank you to all for making everything perfect. We fully appreciate all the hard work that must go on 'behind scenes'!
