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

10 out of 10 for ALL the things: fastidious service, friendly staff, super cool-vibe, gorgeous rooms, best breakfast! 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!

The Covenstead may be the very best B&B I have stayed in over 40 years and many trips to the U.K. Not only is hotel’s interior decor absolutely fascinating, its rooms are beautiful, spacious, well-appointed and very comfortable. Staff are most welcoming and work very hard to accommodate guests needs, as well as serve perfectly prepared individualized breakfasts. A most unusual and wonderful 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.

Affectionately called the witches place. A unique, luxury B&B in the centre of town. Individual styled bedrooms in the spirit of Glastonbury as is the whole house. Comfy beds and always sleep well. Breakfast is the best, friendly and delightful.

Terrific location, fascinating history and eclectic decoration - broadsword on the wall perhaps a raven on a skull. A great and enthusiastic host, with a terrific breakfast. Its a unique place - definitely not a travel lodge - but a very reasonable price for an interesting and enjoyable stay

What an amazing place. It's like walking into a movie set. Such nice people and a very good breakfast. Many extra's like use of the little kitchen upstairs, two livingrooms, a large range of tarotdecks to play with, many books to read, insence to take to your room. It makes the trip to Glastonbury really magical!

The property is first class luxury and suits the atmosphere of Glastonbury perfectly. Everyone said 'oh you are staying at the witches place' and it lives up to that for sure. The host Tony is welcoming, accommodating and all round top guy. Cooked to order breakfast is the best ever. Will be returning as its now my new preferred stay in the area.

This was by far the best experience I have ever had at a B & B. I absolutely loved everything about it. The breakfasts were excellent, the furnishings are gorgeous, the other guests were fascinating to talk with. I have never felt so comfortable and relaxed away from home. Tony is an excellent host and really made us feel well cared for. I hope to visit The Covenstead again someday. It was truly magical! There is no place like it anywhere!

This was an all around amazing experience! 10/10 would recommend everyone book this place if you can. Homemade breakfast cooked to order was the best we've had in all of the UK. Friendly, helpful staff, comfortable and clean. Everything you'd need and want in a stay!

I was really impressed by my stay. The property was exactly as it was listed. I found the B&B very peaceful and restful. Great decor as well. There was a beautiful view of the Abbey outside of my room's window too. Everyone that worked there went out of their way to help me and were so kind. The location was great and everything was top notch.

Wonderful B&B full of fantastic curiosities and artifacts, you could spend days here and still find something new. We received a warm welcome along with our Westie on arrival and a quick tour before settling into the beautiful Handfasting bedroom with its four poster bed and huge bathroom. Such a warm comfortable space. Breakfast was plentiful and lovingly prepared. Highly recommend. Great location right on the High Street but just out from the bustle.

We had a wonderful stay. It was a birthday surprise for my wife. It wasn't just a night away, The Covenstead is an amazing experience with access to so many parts of the house where you can relax, read,meditate or just soak up the atmosphere. We were made to feel so very welcome and even invited to join an evening of mediumship which was another wonderful experience. The whole house is immaculate. Our room was magnificent and we enjoyed a very good breakfast too.We have already booked our next stay. Highly reccomended!

The welcome and hospitality was as warm and lovely as the property. This is not a bland 'chain' property but one which speaks of a life, an interest and curiosity. Our room was beautifully furnished, comfortable and warm. Breakfast was as much or as little as we wanted and the other guests made the start of the day as stimulating as you could wish. With a view across to the Abbey ruins and the center of town at the end of the road we couldn't have wished for better. Thank you

This is a gothic type hotel. Our room was very comfortable and nice. Had a slight problem with dust. We had originally booked three nights but only stayed one night as the hotel premises were not what we expected, especially the breakfast dining which I believe is not very appropriate for having breakfast. However our breakfast was brought up and was excellent. The photos of the hotel on this site should show the premises so that people know what to expect.

Stayed for one night in the Herne room. Very quirky little place, not for the faint hearted! Very clean considering all the stuff! Lots of interesting things to see, like staying in a museum. Everything you need, kitchen, garden and communal areas. Breakfast freshly cooked and yummy. Owner is very flexible and accommodating, he’ll do what he can to make your stay a good one. Very close to the high street.

Having visited Glastonbury on numerous occasions, this was by far the best accommodation I’ve ever stayed in. The house is amazing, filled with character and quirky joy; and the staff were so friendly and helpful. I really didn’t want to leave! If ever there was a place that best embodied the spirit of Glastonbury, The Covenstead is that place.

Wonderful place to stay in Glastonbury, full of furniture, artifacts and books of great intrigue with a story to tell. Herne's room was smart and comfortable (and new en-suite - great move!) with a view across to the Abbey's Kitchen. Having the kitchen space with amenities, coffee/tea/sugar as you expect, fresh water and milk in the fridge, microwave, etc., was really handy. Everything you need for a few night's stay. Tony is a great host from check-in until the minute you leave and the guys make a great breakfast to get you off to a good start. Pubs and restaurants only minutes away, but of course you're visiting for the whole town and wonderful surrounding area, you won't be disappointed!

Love this place so much. You could spend a day of your holiday in the hotel alone looking at all the artifacts, sitting in the front room chilling, playing the guitar or just relaxing in the luxurious rooms. Located opposite the Abbey and a stones throw from the main shopping area. Freshly cooked breakfast, cereal, fruit...if you want something just ask as nothing seemed to be any problem whatsoever especially Byron who always seems to be on duty :). If you get a chance to stay here (even without designated hotel parking) please do as it’s a must in my book.
