A warm welcome awaits you at this unique and special place to stay in gorgeous Glastonbury in an elevated location just eighty yards from the top of the High Street.
Central Location...
Our Georgian Grade II listed building is a mere minute's walk from the bustling High Street with its eclectic shops and cafes. The World Heritage site, Chalice Well Gardens, and the Abbey are a comfortable stroll away. The more energetic of you will find the Tor within easy reach, too. Perfectly located for both Millfield Preparatory School and Millfield School at Street.
Although you're never far from history here, there's nothing old about the standard of accommodation we offer. We've spent a long time lovingly renovating the entire building to an exceptional standard including re-wiring and re-plumbing, and we won the Mendip Award for Best Renovation for 2014. Bove Town House was most recently a boarding house for Millfield School, but it's shaken off its dull institutional past and has been restored to its former splendour. Now you'll find it's a grand house once again with elegant rooms, a stately stone staircase, crystal chandeliers and contemporary styling
Off road private parking, free Wifi, comfortable, modern accommodation and a superb location - we have all the ingredients for a perfect stay, whatever your reason for coming to Glastonbury.
GLASTONBURY
Bove Town House sits above the town centre where visitors can look out over all the key landmarks in this historic town - the Tor, Glastonbury Abbey and Wearyall Hill, where according to ancient legend, Joseph of Arimathea planted his staff in the ground which took root and grew into the famous Holy Thorn – of which we now have two in our garden. The story of Joseph of Arimathea is soon to be a major Hollywood motion picture 'Glastonbury: Isle of Light' to be released in late 2017.

The house itself is a hotchpotch of eras, but is listed for its Georgian features. We believe the house dates from the early 1700s, but it has been extensively modified over the centuries. Its principal remodelling dates from the Georgian era when a Georgian facade and portico entrance were added.
When the previous owners sold off part of the gardens and tennis court of Bove Town House for redevelopment, archaeologists were called in to excavate the grounds. They found the remains of a Saxon nobleman/knight's roundhouse. They also found a gold ducat in the settlement's midden/cess pit - apparently the only ducat of its kind ever found in England - which had been minted to finance the Second Crusade (1144-1150). So a Knight of Glastonbury once owned our land. Was he part of the Arthurian legend? Who knows?
The archaeologists also told us that there had been a settlement on the land as early as 1000BC. In the garden we unearthed many pieces of ornamental and carved stonework transported over the centuries from the Abbey, which we have incorporated in a patchwork boundary wall.
