Sacred and stunning. The best back garden ever for us Glastonbury residents! Amazing Abbey ruins. Beautiful lake in the middle with willow trees, Apple Orchard, Medieval Herbs Garden. A small shop inside selling tea and coffee. Lots of places to lay, meditation and be peaceful. Lots of space. High energy and place of divine connection.

Little hidden gem. Known as the Magdalene Chapel on Magdalene Street just beyond the Abbey on the right side of the street.
