The 8 Best Things to do Good for Couples in Glastonbury, England
Generally a quiet place graced with lovely terrain for strolling, Glastonbury is very busy in the summer because of its music festival. Best known for contemporary music, the festival has attracted almost 200,000 people in recent years (whereas Glastonbury's full-time population is only 9,000 or so). There are a number of historical monuments to see in the area, including Glastonbury Lake Village, Glastonbury Abbey and the Somerset Rural Life Museum. We can't say that the weather is always good, but on a sunny day you can't go wrong!

To sit and take in the beautiful structures while daydreaming that King Arthur and Guinevere are buried here fulfills a wanderlust in my spirit that was awoken as a child when I was first told of the mythical legends and folklore that still entice me today. The height and architecture of some of the remaining structures are just awesome to gaze upon. Being there at sunset added to the beauty. If you love the legends a much as I do you’ll be happy to have stepped foot into this place.

7. White Spring Well & Temple
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 352 reviews
Cavernous and set apart, in blackness or candle lit, mysterious it remains. A wonderful contrast to the sunlit gardens of Chalice Well of the Red Spring. The interior consists of three domed vaults 16ft high, with beautiful bowed floors - like the hull of a boat moored at the portal to the Otherworld. With it's constant temperature, and the sound of the perpetually flowing water, it is a unique and sacred space. Please be aware that people often bathe naked here, and we have a no photography policy. Many groups, pilgrims, and local people - from a wide diversity of backgrounds and traditions - have come to appreciate the blessings of this sacred space. So do come and enjoy the White Spring during our normal opening hours or at our regular ceremonies and meditations. We gather together to celebrate the turning of the seasons and at the full moon. Private visits and ceremonies, including baptisms and ceremonial bathing may be possible by arrangement. In keeping with the sense of sacred at the White Spring there is no charge or expectation of donation, neither is anyone paid. People often make a contribution to the White Spring for the upkeep costs and to keep access free for all. Please consider making a financial contribution if you are able to, all contributions are welcomed, but never expected.

If you're looking for magic and wonder here it is. An extraordinarily evocative place on sacred land. Great for meditations or simply sit in quietude and sip in the atmosphere. Pure healing waters for drinking and bathing.
