Glastonbury town
The strangest town in England: climb the Tor for free, sip from the holy springs and wander a high street like nowhere else.
FREE
The lowdown
Glastonbury is the strangest, most magical town in England and most of it costs nothing. Climb the Tor for a huge view over the Somerset Levels, fill a bottle at the free White Spring and wander a high street full of crystals, cafes and characters.
The Abbey grounds are ticketed but the Tor, the town and the markets are free. It is the furthest of these trips so an early advance train pays off, and few day trips feel quite this otherworldly.
