Glastonbury Accommodation. Glastonbury Festival is one of the most magical places on earth, but it isn’t easy. The festival size can be exhausting especially if you don’t pace yourself.
I used to find Wednesdays the hardest. I would wake up early and drive from London. Then drag all my gear on my trolley from the car park and finally put up the tent. By the time I had my first cider at the Cider Bus, I would be knackered!
Then I decided to do something about it. I arrive near the festival site the night before and stay in a nearby B&B. I get a good night’s sleep and have a short drive in the morning to the festival. I feel refreshed and up for the mad 5 days at Worthy Farm. This website is all about tips to make you have your best Glasto yet. This is one of those tips!
Below is accommodation near Glastonbury Festival. See you on the farm!

Hi Paul
Just had a quick glance (for now) and this guide is amazing. My first time at Glastonbury this year!
Just one thing, would it be possible to indicate how close the lusted accommodations are to the courtesy bus pick up points please?
Thank you
Best wishes
