Tresco Island Spa
Tresco Island Spa is open daily (except Christmas Day, Boxing Day & New Year's Day), with the Sea Garden facilities open daily. Treatments are also available at select times.
The New Inn
Open daily throughout the festive season for drinks, lunch and dinner. On Christmas Day, all are invited for pre-lunch drinks before our bookable traditional Christmas lunch, while on New Year's Eve, there's live music from Isobel Drake.
Tresco Stores
Open throughout the period for daily essentials, treats and festive favourites (closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Day).
Abbey Garden
It's a far-from-bleak midwinter on Tresco; the garden is open daily, ablaze with colour, with hundreds of plants in bloom even at the New Year Flower Count. The Garden Shop and Café are, however, closed. Perhaps bring a flask!
Scheduled Boating
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.
Events & Activities
From candlelit carols to serene seasonal yoga and New Year's Eve celebrations, we'll have a small but perfectly formed calendar of events.
Christmas Shopping
Gallery Tresco will open selected days for last-minute gifting and the dropping of subtle hints to loved ones.
