  • "Couldn't fault it, much more than just a holiday let mor like a home from home."

    Four of us for a number of years have had a bird watching trip every May, this is by far the best property we have stayed in so far. I would highly recommend anybody wanting to visit this area to look no further.

    Ahhh thanks so much Ian, so pleased you enjoyed your stay. We hope you’ll be back!! Property Owner

  • "A well equipped and attractive cottage in a location that's great for exploring the area around Glastonbury."

    The bedrooms were great - all ensuite though would recommend against the one with the bath unless you're tall - it's a bit deep for shorter people! Lots of places within easy reach like Wells but also only just over an hour to get to the south coast makes it a great base to wander around.

  • "Orchard End is a delightful property."

    Spotless, well equipped and lovely design. We really appreciated the detail the owners have put into furnishing the property and making it so comfortable. It was lovely and warm which was important as we arrived in torrential rain. There are lots of local footpaths for walking. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

About the location

GLASTONBURY

Wells 6 miles.

The town of Glastonbury dates back over 4000 years, and has always been associated with legends, mysticism and folklore, with links to the Holy Grail, King Arthur and Ley Lines. Today, the attractive town, well known for its music festival, is a centre for religious tourism and pilgrimage, offering a wealth of fascinating shops and businesses supporting these ideals. Located on the Somerset Levels, views across the town are dominated by the world famous Glastonbury Tor, with its enigmatic tower, now managed by the National Trust. Within the town, the ruined abbey offers a fascinating experience, brimming with ancient atmosphere, peace and tranquillity. The Somerset Levels provide acres of unspoilt wetlands, a haven for bird life. Alternatively, explore Wells, England’s smallest city, Wookey Hole, or scenic Cheddar Gorge. A vibrant and exciting holiday destination at any time of the year.
