Glastonbury Abbey

Idyllic

What can you say about the town's most precious place - take a stroll through the gatehouse entrance and pay the admission fee to find yourself in the most glorious green space, an absolute haven from the busy town just outside. This is a place to wander, sit, read, exercise, walk the dog, stroll with friends, picnic, feed the ducks, relax, pray, meditate, doze in the sunshine, look for wildlife, build snowmen (when it snows!!), kick leaves under the trees, absorb yourself in the peace and tranquility of the grounds, imagine life centuries ago, gaze at the ruins in awe, soak up the atmosphere of the Abbots kitchen, wander the orchard, run your fingers through the herbs in the medieval herb garden......buy yourself a year's worth of season ticket for about £20 and enjoy it all year round.
