Chalice Well - St Michaels House - This is actually part of the Chalice Well, on the land, and they have rooms for as little as £80 per night (accommodation info here https://chalicewell.org.uk/retreats/lsm/) but in order to book a room, you first need to become a member of the association (which is £35 for an annual membership https://chalicewell.org.uk/get-involved/companionships-and-garden-passes/)
Airbnb Options - There are lots of great options on there from places in town, to nature spots - just search Glastonbury and check they are walking distance to Chalice Well if you don’t want to drive (You are welcome to contact Josie or Tiamat anytime to check any accommodation location with us before booking) Here are a few places we found
Are meals/food included?
Meals are not included - it is a non-residential pilgrimage and healing journey - so please prepare to eat out, usually the cost will be between £10-£20 depending on what you order. We will be in touch to those who book to confirm our full schedule, which will include an hour slot for lunch at a local cafe/restaurant. We will all go for food together but if you prefer to have some space to eat alone you are so welcome of course.
