Within the retreat, everyone has a place on our two big minibuses.

If you would like to take your own car, please let us know so we can do our best to coordinate departures and arrivals.

If you arrive by public transport, you will probably be dropped opposite the Abbey museum (the opposite side of the retreat house), at the foot of the high street.

Glastonbury High Street has a few grocery stores, and if you need to get to a bigger store for supplies, let us know, and we can bring you on one of our outings.

Also in Glastonbury are a wide collection of thrift shops for any bits that are missing for your sense of fashion and comfort.

GETTING HERE

London Paddington Station is the main departure point from London to either Bristol city or Bristol airport or Castle Cary train station.

From Bristol there is a bus route to Glastonbury, and from Castle Cary it's necessary to take a taxi if you arrive at a time where we can't get you (around 25 minutes drive).

There is also a direct bus once a day from Paddington Station to Glastonbury.

Dare to Drive?

Driving on the left can be dauntinig at first, but basically it's easy when you follow the traffic. British drivers tend to be slow and patient. Just be alert at roundabouts (they go the other way) and turning into junctions).

International drivers can tend to veer toward the pavements out of habit. If you align with the white lines in the center of the road, it will be easier to stay even.

Remember to take your time. It is a friendly country!

Hexton Road (first evening 8 pm)
