This 2.5 bedroom (2 bedrooms with one connected bedroom) cottage has a peaceful happy atmosphere and offers a relaxing and quality stay.
Lie in one of the front bedrooms and gaze at the glorious ancient ruins of Glastonbury Abbey.
Parallel to the High Street, and walking distance to the Tor and Chalice Well Gardens, you are ideally placed to experience Glastonbury’s unique offerings.
Recently renovated for modern comfort, this cottage offers a memorable and comfortable stay.
Please note:
No smoking and no pet policy
No infants. Children over 14 only.
The space
Grade II Listed Victorian Cottage with views of Glastonbury Abbey
Sunlight comes in the front windows for a lot of the day and the evening sunsets across the Abbey ruins can be beautiful.
The locking front porch can used for keeping shoes and boots and we ask you take your footwear off when you in the house. There are three steps up from the pavement level into the house.
It has a comfy living room with two settees, a Smart TV and a wood burner in the original fireplace. There are plenty of books on locally inspired topics, some guided walk books and a selection of general books.
The lovely kitchen/dining room is all recently renovated and fitted new, with a dishwasher and washer/dryer and fridge/freezer, rangemaster cooker and plenty of crockery and cookware. Pictures and items of local interest add that special Glastonbury feel to the space.
A back lobby leads to the stairs and to the peaceful courtyard garden which is not overlooked. The lobby has coat hooks for coats etc.
Upstairs there is a bedroom with a four poster king size bed and exposed stone wall. The second bedroom is part of a two room original layout, the first room having a single bed and the connecting bedroom through it has another king size pine bed. Care has been taken in selecting charming furniture, pictures and decor to enhance the special feel of the rooms.
All the windows are original Georgian sash windows and glass that are over 150 years old, each individually hand-restored, so take care with opening and closing. Bespoke Shutters and curtains are fitted so you can enjoy the features without suffering draughts like in the 1800s! Also a brand new CH system is fitted with adjustable valves on radiators, and a NEST thermostat to ensure modern comfort is met.
The small bathroom is fitted with a standard bath with shower overhead. A combi boiler ensures a constant flow of hot water.
There is no parking at the property but the Silver St car park (pay by phone or machine) is just across the road and there are some free bays immediately opposite the house, although these are popular with local residents but are not restricted to residents only. There is also plenty of parking within Glastonbury town itself although of course it is busy on market days and popular periods.
As a listed and older property, Abbeyview has a very old fabric with lathe and plaster walls and ceilings, and rubble stone exterior walls with a later addition ‘fashion of the times’ brick frontage. The stairs are narrow and steep with an 1800s handrail which is not weight-bearing, and is for light support only. You will see exposed lintels of beautiful ancient oak (most likely from Baltic shipping timbers brought to the UK after the Crimea) and evidence of the stone rubble-built walls, with occasional hints of (purloined) smooth chunks of the Abbey limestone! The ceilings are on the low side but not as much as some period properties but do mind your head walking though doors etc if you are on the tall side.
Because of the nature of the cottage, it is not suitable for anyone with mobility/access issues or children/pets.

We had a wonderful stay at Abbeyview from start to finish. Very easy to find, check-in was easy, parked for free just steps from the door.
The space is lovely, so nicely decorated with sweet little touches everywhere to make it feel so cozy and homey, while having modern conveniences. New large bat...
