A NEW ISLAND JEWEL IN PLYMOUTH SOUND

The historic Drake’s Island located just 600m from the Plymouth shoreline is set to be brought back to life by the new owner, Plymouth-based businessman, Morgan Phillips, who is developing the island into a luxury (25 bedroom) hotel and spa resort. The six-acre island, named after Sir Francis Drake, who set sail from the island in 1577 to circumnavigate the globe, will offer locals and tourists the opportunity for their own island adventures, staying in the Grade II listed former Governor’s Island House, exploring hidden tunnels and forgotten buildings.
