Starlight Cabin at The Apothecary Garden - Self-catering in Somerset
2 Rood Cottage, Butleigh, BA6 8TF, Somerset
England,
Reino Unido
A real treat to stay on a working apothecary garden near mystical Glastonbury. This is where botanical scents for Bramley and Fortnum & Mason are nurtured and you'll arrive to your own bottle of hydrolat for skin care and wellbeing. The colourful garden is open for guests, it's a serene space with a stone circle, meandering paths and quiet spots to rest in.
You stay in a dinky cabin for two (plus a sofa bed for a little one) with your own terrace and hot tub. The feel is very natural, lots of wood, splashes of colour in stained glass windows and soft furnishings, big doors opening to your outside space. It's a relaxed kind of place: cosy up in front of the wood-burner, dine under the stars, bubble in the hot tub.
They also host retreats, workshops, training events if you want to get involved. Otherwise Glastonbury and its marvellous Tor are close by, Wells and the stunning cathedral not much further.
