Visiting The Glastonbury Festival in style

29 November 2011

As well as being one of the most famous and best attended live music festivals in the World, if it rains heavily, camping at the Glastonbury Festival may not be your ideal way to visit this wonderful and varied festival. You could get the best of both worlds by renting a cottage in Somerset with friends, and making day trips to the festival with the comfort of a bed at the end of your day.

There are many small towns where you can hire a cottage in Somerset near the Glastonbury festival site, such as Wells, Shepton Mallet, Cheddar, Street and Glastonbury itself. The Glastonbury festival site is actually in the village of Pilton, so if you do stay in Glastonbury please bear in mind that you will be approximately 7 miles from the festival site.

If you are visiting Glastonbury festival with a large group of friends, you should be able to find a cottage in Somerset large enough to cater for your needs. But as hiring a cottage in Somerset is becoming an increasingly popular way of visiting the festival, bear in mind it is important to book early.

If you do stay in a cottage in Somerset, you will also have the option of exploring the countryside in Somerset, and enjoying the relaxed West Country lifestyle. There are caves in Cheddar and Wookey Hole which are worth a visit, and should you visit Cheddar there is also the impressive Gorge to visit.

The city of Wells is also worth a visit with its impressive cathedral. Wells is in fact the smallest city in England, as well as the only city in Somerset, due to having a cathedral despite only having a population of just over ten thousand.
