The New Inn offers 16 recently refurbished en-suite rooms, many with sweeping sea or countryside views. Each comes with thoughtful touches - fresh coffee, homemade biscuits, and luxurious 100 Acres toiletries.
Downstairs, the cosy Sleepers’ Sitting Room blends contemporary comfort with traditional character, complete with island-inspired artwork and a welcoming log burner in the cooler months.
Next door, the Driftwood Bar sits at the heart of island life -alive year-round with locals and visitors. Its wreckwood and maritime relics create a rustic, easy charm. The light, airy Pavilion dining space looks toward the sea, perfect for summer evenings, winter suppers, and your inclusive hearty breakfast, with both continental options and favourites from the kitchen.
Guests enjoy complimentary entry to the world-famous Tresco Abbey Garden, as well as access to all Tresco leisure facilities: indoor and outdoor pools, the Sea Garden and Tresco Island Spa, tennis courts, and even golf on neighbouring St Mary’s.
The New Inn is recognised among The Times’ 100 Best Places to Stay in the UK and holds a 4* Gold award from both Visit England and the AA, who include it in their Premier Collection. The kitchen proudly carries an AA Rosette, serving classic pub favourites with a distinctive Tresco twist.
When you stay at The New Inn, you’re at the heart of island life - enjoying pints with the locals, relaxed dinners by the Pavilion log burner, and the occasional evening of live music.
