WALK: St Martin's Vineyard, Isles of Scilly
Journey from the British mainland to the Isles of Scilly, a tiny archipelago 28 miles off the coast of Cornwall, and you feel as though you're arriving in another world.
These five inhabited islands are small patchworks of subtropical gardens and white-sand beaches in the midst of the ocean. On one, tiny St Martin's, you will find the smallest and most southwesterly vineyard in Britain busy growing grapes, which flourish in the subtropical climate and frost-free winters.
To sample Scilly's finest vintages, first you have to journey to the car-free island of St Martin's, population 120.
