Glastonbury Halal Travel Guide

Glastonbury is best known for the myths and legends surrounding both Glastonbury Tor, a prominent hill rising up from the surrounding flat landscape; Glastonbury Abbey, which together have made the town a thriving centre for mystical, New Age, alternative spirituality; and the annual Glastonbury Festival, a summer music festival that has been likened to the equivalent of an ongoing Woodstock music festival.

Travel to Glastonbury

You can take buses from Wells or other major cities in the area to get to Glastonbury. A National Express coach leaves the High Street early in the morning, and one returns at night to get you to London and back, or you could get a Megabus or train to Bristol and then get the 376 local service to Glastonbury (1½ hr).

Top Muslim Travel Tips for Glastonbury

  • Glastonbury Festival - 51.155, -2.586 ☎ +44 1458 834596 - Glastonbury Festival This festival is held annually at the end of June and is famous for its wide range of headlining music acts ranging from rock to (in 2004) opera. In bad weather it is also famous for its seas of mud! Actually and the festival is held near the small village of Pilton, but since Glastonbury is the nearby town and because of its New Age connections, it has lent its name to the event.

Shopping

A selection of crystals, semi precious stones, incense and esoteric books are available. Most shops on the high street are not chain stores; therefore, you are guaranteed to find an unusual item. An abundance of witchcraft, pagan and goddess shops will confront you, and it's worth taking a look at least one of them on your visit here.

Of particular note is the new Gauntlet Thoroughfare, opened last year, which contains a plethora of specialist shops, at 11 High Street.

Look around. Certain crystal shops regularly overinflate prices, and a couple don't even have prices. Wednesday local residents feel they have the 'Look at the shoes and handbag of the person and then pluck a price out of thin air' method of pricing. Beware of this, and look around a few different shops before you purchase anything.

Halal Restaurants

Although there are a number of pubs in Glastonbury and the "proper English" pubs are found in Wells (20 min bus ride away). Once in Wells and the Rose and Crown and the City Arms are both nice pubs for a Coffee. The Rose and Crown has a swimming swimmingpool table, so you can obtain a lovely game of swimmingpool whilst sampling some great local ales.
