    everything - beds very comfy very clean and the bedding smelt amazing I've stayed in Glastonburyany many times and this is definitely the best one . and the breakfast was delicious.

    we loved this place so much so I will be booking again - staff super friendly and the house and it's contents are another level full of historical things . amazing pictures books and all sorts of treasure that we were warmly invited to use . I loved the idea that it's full of a person collection of occultism and the new owners have treated them respectfully. you definitely don't have to be into occultism to love and enjoy the treasures and the vibe of the house is so warm and welcoming X ps pics don't do it justice

    We didn't stay long enough 🤣

    Another amazing stay at the Covenstead. This time, we stayed in the handfasting room as we had our own handfasting ceremony in Glastonbury during our stay. Once again, we received a warm welcome and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We can't wait to visit again in the future.

    The bed pillows. Reminded me of my grandmother’s cardigan stuffed pillows. 🤣 Everything else was perfect.

    The property is incredible. Full of fascinating artefacts and interesting objects. It’s stunning.you really have to take your time and look at everything. So much thought and care has been put into this house, which has been beautifully maintained by the current owner and staff.

    There was quite a lot of traffic noise. I’m guessing the building is listed so double glazing wouldn’t be an option. It got a lot quieter during sleeping hours.

    From the minute I entered the front door I just kept saying WOW. No point describing the decor, you just have to experience it. Tony and all of the staff were so helpful and friendly. Breakfast was incredible.

    There isn't anything I didn't like!

    The Covenstead is a unique experience which delves into the history or witchcraft and magic! The rooms are beautifully decorated as is the entire hotel, even the stairwells have so much to look at! The Breakfast room is beyond luxurious and has a very gothic feel, and the breakfast was first rate! I've stayed before here and no doubt will stay again, I actually love this hotel, its by far the best most interesting hotel I've ever stayed at! You will love it!!

    I was concerned that my witch wound would be activated ( burned at the stake in past life) but it wasn’t and it was actually healed in this beautiful conscious space & REMEMBERED the beauty of the craft/ womens sacred work.

    The decor, books- so much to observe & enjoy. My room had lots & lots of fairies and the four archangels. I felt so safe & welcome and protected.

    Absolutely loved our stay at The Covenstead. All the staff were super friendly, chatting about our stay, offering recommendations for our trip and so welcoming. The Covenstead is such a beautiful place to stay. The decorations are amazing & it was exactly the experience we were looking for whilst in Glastonbury. Our room was comfortable & the bathroom a great size with a bath & a seperate shower unit. The WiFi was brilliant. Everywhere was super clean. Nice to have a room downstairs to relax together in the evening and a kitchen area available to make hot drinks with another lounge area next door. Also a garden area to relax in too. So much thought has gone into this place to make the guests experience as nice as possible. The best bit was the breakfast - so many options to choose from & able to cater for Veggie & Gluten Free absolutely fine. Really nice and relaxed talking to the other guests over breakfast or you can read one of the many books available on the bookshelves or do some Tarot cards. I will definitely be returning here again. The best place I have ever stayed. Thank you to the team at The Covenstead for making it such a beautiful experience for guests.
