Christmas on Tresco

The Island Spa facilities are open daily (except Christmas Day, Boxing Day & New Year's Day), with therapies available at select times.

The Island Spa Sea Garden facilities take a break at this time of year.

Open daily throughout the festive season for drinks, lunch, and dinner.

On Christmas Day, join us for pre-lunch tipples before a bookable traditional Christmas lunch.

And on New Year’s Eve, The New Inn is at the heart of the island’s celebrations as we toast to 2026 in true Tresco style.

Open throughout the period for daily essentials, treats and festive favourites (closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Day).

It’s anything but a bleak midwinter on Tresco. The Abbey Garden is open daily and alive with colour, with hundreds of plants in bloom. While the Garden Shop and Café take a winter pause, you’re welcome to bring a flask and soak up the seasonal splendour.

Winter boating is limited to arrival/departure transfers and one scheduled weekly trip to St Mary’s. There are no trips to other islands, where most things are closed for winter.

From candlelit carols to tranquil seasonal yoga and joyful New Year’s Eve celebrations, we’ve curated a small but perfectly formed calendar of festive events to warm your winter stay.

Gallery Tresco will open selected days for last-minute gifting and the dropping of subtle hints to loved ones.
