Camelot Retreat

民宿のような施設だった

Restful, uplifting environment in which to stay - I went for a stopover and would have liked to have stayed for a week.

Really nice and homely, interesting people, flexible arrangements with meals, good location.

The property has a nice vibe to it. Glastonbury is a very spiritual place. And Camelot Retreat was a nice reflection of the community.

B&B is in a residential area outside the center but close to the Tor. Whilst bedding and towels were freshly laundered, the overall state of the property was outdated, dusty, with cobwebs in the rooms and dirt in corners plus the garden was in a right state. Nothing like the pictures and didn't feel peaceful or a place of rest. Breakfast options very limited, go to Heaphy's or Timos in town instead. Overall the owner seemed very disinterested and apathic. A lot of notes scattered around the property informed you of the strict rules (mainly around food and drink, how to behave and what is expected of you, for example being very, very, very quiet). Can only reiterate what somebody said before, didn't feel like a holiday, felt unwelcome and uncomfortable. Couldn't wait to leave the next day.

This was a lovely place to stay for the one night that I needed it. The room was nice and warm which I appreciated as the weather was wet, cool & windy while I was there. Bed was also very comfortable and I felt content to be in my room for the evening. It was a nice bonus to have access to the meditation room and a small library of wonderful books. Good selection of breakfast items too. Easily walkable to everything I wanted to see in Glastonbury.

This Buddist retreat was ok for a place to sleep. Evelen was there and greated upon arrival. House rules are stringent with no meat for cooking. Didn't see anyone but Evelen while there. No place out of the weather to store the bike, which was stored out in the back garden. Breakfast simple and serve yourself. I'm not a buddist but took note of Evelen saying I had to much baggage by leaving a large towel behind. Ha ha. I'd rate this place OK for a quite stay.

It's a magical place, with magical people that made my staying there so lovely and joyful. I'm super satisfied about having chose this place.

There was no mention in the description that this was a vegetarian only establishment. NO meat, fish or alcohol was allowed (even in the room) and there were restrictive quiet hours. “Breakfast included” actually meant cold cereal, toast (one morning there wasn’t any bread provided) and eggs- all self service and self cleanup. Rooms were clean and comfortable but it certainly didn’t feel like a holiday.

Very peaceful and comfortable space. Excellent hosts.

Unfortunately it was very thin walls, you can hear other guests talking and walking but everyone tried to take concern. Would have loved a better lamp for reading in the room. You have to share bathroom with several other guests, but I guess that is one reason why the price is lower than in most places. Nice with the garden and that it is a bit away from traffic, still only about 15 min walk to Chalice Well and to the town centre.

I arrived late and was welcomed. I liked the flexibility of having breakfast at your own time. My only concern is that the walls are thin and you can hear every sound from downstairs and in adjoining rooms and bathroom.

A very lovely, well-run BnB in Glastonbury which I highly recommend. Located in a quiet area, close to the Tor.

Owners are well meaning and nice people. but have no idea how to run the place. Miserable damp towels, had to make our own breakfast with minimal stuff found in fridge, then wash up. Bed occupied almost whole room. Bathroom shared with many. Cramped, uncomfortable. No privacy. Owners are new age Mystics and very pleasant but need to visit other B&B places to learn how to make people comfortable. Most guests in Glastonbury for spiritual awakening, perhaps no interested in material things.

We stayed here and got to meet some very special spiritual persons. We were about a 10 minute walk from town.

close to the tor

The owner is a kind woman. The interior of the house is nice. From my room's window, I saw a Glastonbury Tor. If you use Castle Carry train station, probably you can receive a pick up service from the station to Glastonbury by paying additional fee.

Lovely and clean. Had full use of kitchen and breakfast supplies. Valeyre was Friendly and welcoming.

Probably worst experience I have ever had at a place of accommodation. They would not accommodate my late arrival due to traffic caused by road works on the M4 when I informed them that it would take longer than originally planned. I was told, very bluntly, that if I arrive after midnight they would lock the door and lose my money. Had to sleep in a carpark for the night as no hotels in my price range were available in the area. Why does someone have to keep my money for not giving anything in return? It was late in the day and tI doubt she had other guests coming if she didn't want to allow us in.

Fantastische Unterkunft. Frühstück ist sehr gut. Wir hatten eine wundervolle Energie. Jederzeit zu empfehlen!!
