Maypole (Cornish : Peul Kala' Me) [1] is a dispersed settlement located on the island of St Mary's, the largest of the Isles of Scilly, England. [2] It is a tourist and farming area, with the only horse riding school in the islands. [3]

Nearby are Holy Vale and Pelistry. The A3110 road runs through the area; on this road to the west of Maypole, towards Telegraph, is Silver Carn or High Lanes, a small settlement which includes a large guesthouse and café. [4]
