High Street, town centre · Inn
A Grade I listed 15th-century coaching inn on the high street, built for Abbey pilgrims and still serving food, ale and characterful rooms today.
About George & Pilgrims Inn
The George & Pilgrims Inn occupies one of Glastonbury's most historic buildings, a Grade I listed coaching inn dating to around 1475 that was originally constructed to house pilgrims visiting the neighbouring Abbey. Its stone frontage on the high street remains one of the most photographed in the town, and inside, exposed beams and ancient stone walls have been paired with contemporary comfort across fourteen individually styled rooms.
Room types range from doubles and twins to family triples and a handful of four-poster suites, each fitted with premium linens, a smart TV and quality toiletries. The inn's bar pours local ales and a curated wine list beneath the same beams that have sheltered guests for over five centuries, while the restaurant serves a seasonal Modern British menu, including a well-regarded Sunday roast, in a dining room that still feels genuinely medieval.
Its position on the high street puts guests within a couple of minutes' walk of the Abbey gates, and the whole of Glastonbury's shops, cafes and market square are equally close at hand. A small garden and courtyard offer a quieter spot to sit outside, and dog-friendly rooms are available for guests travelling with pets, making this one of the most characterful and central places to stay in the town.
