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.
