Glastonbury

Spring (Mar–May): Mild (about 8–15°C) with showers. Fewer tourists make it ideal for walking the Tor and seeing spring blooms; Easter services and some May Day/Beltane gatherings occur. Summer (Jun–Aug): Warmest (about 14–22°C) and longest days but busiest. Peak tourism and the famous Glastonbury Festival (late June) plus summer-solstice gatherings fill accommodation and roads; expect crowds. Autumn (Sep–Nov): Cooling (about 8–15°C), crisp skies and autumn colours. Off-peak crowds, good for quieter visits to the Abbey and Chalice Well; local harvest and heritage events add interest. Winter (Dec–Feb): Cold, wet and windy (around 2–8°C) and the quietest time. Many attractions have limited hours, but atmospheric misty landscapes, Christmas markets and seasonal concerts can be rewarding.
