What was unique about the property?? Pretty much everything! Loved the overall decor and vibe. It felt very much like home and I had the sense of the house being very much a sanctuary from the outside world. The staff were incredibly friendly, fun and helpful, to say nothing of the great breakfasts, that everyone raves about (quite rightly!). We loved everything about our stay and will be back!

Wow. Where to begin? We just spent a magical four nights in this amazing place. We felt so welcomed by the wonderful staff and enjoyed the very homey, witchy feel of the place. Didn't want to leave! The breakfast was super delicious and we very much enjoyed the garden. The other guests were fun to talk to, as the people that are drawn to this place are certainly unique. The decor is fascinating and mesmerizing. We could have spent weeks exploring it all. We cannot recommend this place more highly and we can't wait to return! Thank you Covestead and staff for the beautiful energy and amazing stay!

Amazing! Staff were so friendly and helpful. The property itself is actually jaw dropping. I've never stayed anywhere like it before. Will definitely be returning. The bedroom and ensuite were both huge. Very comfortable bed. Bath and separate shower was a bonus. Cooked to order breakfast was fantastic. Loads of nice touches like complimentary chilled bottles of water, sweets and snacks. Lovely space to relax both inside the house and in the garden. Free parking was also available. Overall great stay. Thanks to all the staff and to the person responsible for designing and decorating the property. Honestly amazing.

This is a truely amazing place to stay. The decor is amazing, staff are wonderful and location is fantastic. We stayed 4 nights and loved everything about the place, breakfast is amazing (and staff super accommodating with different ‘off menu’ requests) and access to a mini kitchen also made life much easier for grabbing a coffee of storing a beer during the day :) Will absolutely be making a return visit and almost hesitant to give a good review as it may make getting a room even harder ;)

This place is amazing especially for the witchy minded. It is like a museum in itself and I spent an entire evening browsing and then picked a good book (over 1000 to choose from) to read. The staff are extremely friendly and the breakfast delicious. I loved my room overlooking the Abbey and the bathtub very enjoyable. If I ever return I will definitely stay here again and I’m going home with great memories. Thanks

You’ll never see a more intricately themed B&B…you get transported to another place and time of magic and pagan wildness! And I can’t leave out how fun it was to meet new interesting people every morning seated at the (most incredible) dining table. Thanks to Tony, Freya, Donna, Adele for your amazing service!

The Covenstead is a most unusual and lovely place to stay in heart of Glastonbury close to the Abbey ruins. The hotel is furnished with a unique and fascinating collection of antiques and artifacts throughout, and guests have access to several common areas on the ground floor as well as a pretty garden. Individual rooms are spacious, beautifully appointed and very comfortable. The friendly staff are most welcoming and work very hard to accommodate guests needs, as well as serve breakfasts perfectly prepared to individual tastes. A truly magical place to stay!

Covenstead is my preferred place to stay in Glastonbury. It's interior is so unique and a perfect fit for eclectic eccentricity of the town with a great back story too. The rooms spacious & comfortable with nice sized bathrooms plus daily service. Being opposite the Abbey and minutes walking to the High Street it's also a perfect location. Breakfast is unsurpassable with such great menu choices, beautiful cooking and the wonderful staff who can't be more helpful. It is worth every penny and makes any trip to Glastonbury special.
