About the area
The nearby villages of West Pennard, Pilton and Butleigh provide additional nurseries and primary schools, pubs, village stores, cafes and other amenities,One of the big attractions of the area are the friendly village communities with many varied societies.Glastonbury's past and present are linked with its dominant landmark, the Tor. It's been a religious centre throughout history and further back into the times of legends. There was a Celtic monastery here by 500 AD which, during the next 1000 years evolved into one of England's wealthiest and most influential abbeys. The town grew up alongside the Abbey and today it's a small but thriving town and a major tourist venue, welcoming thousands of visitors each year. Medieval Glastonbury - designated a conservation area - clusters around the evocative ruins of the Abbey.
