Hell Bay Hotel
“Assured cooking in a Scillies hideaway” - AA Inspector
BRYHER, ISLES OF SCILLY
Our Inspector's view
Not nearly as alarming as it sounds, Hell Bay is actually an idyllic secluded cove embraced by gorse-laden hillocks. Reached by ferry, Bryher is small enough to get around on foot, and the unassuming Hell Bay Hotel is the perfect spot to set off from. There is much to love in its Cornish art-filled rooms and sea views, while on the food front Richard Kearsley's assured, confident cooking is a major draw. You’re in the right place when it comes to fish and seafood, whether it’s pan-roasted Cornish scallops, Newlyn hake with smoked haddock and mussel velouté or Bryher crab. There are meat and vegetarian options too if fish is not your thing, while for dessert maybe plump for the tangy lemon meringue pie.
