Monday, August 29th Glastonbury

There are so many different legends and special places in and around Glastonbury. We want you to experience all of them.
Tor Webster (Tor's Tour of the Tor), who for over 12 years has been living, studying and living deeply into these places, will be our guide for in Glastonbury, helping us to understand all that has been happening there throughout time.

After breakfast the first day, Tor will give us a lovely tour including St Margaret's chapel – the original Mary Magdalene chapel – and to St Johns Church to uncover the well-hidden artifacts. After a brief lunch break we will proceed to the Abbey to find some proof of the early Christian knowledge, explore the Michael and Mary ley lines and the last resting place of King Arthur and Queen Guinevere. From here we will visit the Chalice Well gardens and the White Spring temple, lingering for time to connect with these healing places.
From there we will continue on to Glastonbury Tor. Here, among other things, we will visit the sacred standing stones, one being the Egg Stone, all part of the 3rd labyrinth. After this unusual site, we will find the tree portal to the underworld hidden in the magical faery woods at the bottom of the Tor.
We will finish the day with a good dinner and a restful night of sleep.

Tuesday, August 30th Avebury and West Kennet Long Barrow

After another delicious breakfast of your choice at our B&B, we will leave Glastonbury for the day and drive to Avebury, the site of the largest Stone Circle on earth and many other sacred places. Our private minibus will be driven by our guide, author and filmmaker, Peter Knight.
"He has a relaxed manner, a good sense of humour and is very enthusiastic about his subject, making for entertaining and informative tours. His trips are a spiritual experience as he takes us into the living landscape of the Goddess.”

Today, our tour will include the main henge at Avebury, connecting with the ancient spirit stones, a special meditation under the amazing beech trees, and megalithic Silbury Hill. A truly magical day, yielding many surprises even to regular Avebury visitors, including St Michael Line energies dowsed through the landscape. We will have lunch at the famous Barge Inn (center for crop circles in the area) and keep ourselves posted for any recent crop circles, which we will certainly visit if they are around.

In the early evening, we will go to West Kennet Long Barrow for a very special ceremony, a private gathering to honour our ancestors. It will be a magical, profound early evening event at West Kennet Long Barrow, a 5,600 year-old chambered mound. Peter will do a short tour of the site, based on his book, and then we will witness the sunset, and go into the chambers. We will chant, do some gentle drumming, and have a meditation to link with the ancestors. After this wonderful day, we will return to our Glastonbury beds for a good night’s sleep.
Wednesday, August 31st Cerne Abbas Giant in Dorset

Following breakfast we will spend part of the day again with Peter and drive to Dorset, an area full of megaliths and important sites that are not often visited. Peter will take us to see the Cerne Abbas Giant, which Peter has written about in one of his many books.
After the drive back to Glastonbury, we will enjoy a group meal together at one of the fine local restaurants back in Glastonbury. Meal included in the cost.

Preparation for the Glastonbury Tor Labyrinth Pilgrimage with John Wadsworth & Andreea Bradu
In the morning we will gather with John and Andreea at St. John's church, on the High street and begin with an opening ceremony there, walking the labyrinth in the church yard during the solar eclipse. They will also give a talk about Glastonbury Tor and its labyrinth while we are there. This is open to all of us, whether or not you choose to walk the Tor Labyrinth on Friday.
We have also been invited to join John and Andreea in their yurt in Butleigh in the evening, 7pm, for a New Moon Meditation Gathering. This is optional.

The rest of the day is a free day for you to explore any part of Glastonbury on your own, to take all the time you want for meditation at whichever sites you have been drawn to. Arise whenever you please, have a leisurely breakfast and spend the day enjoying this magical place. Also, it will be the perfect opportunity to shop in the wonderful book stores and gift shops, for goddess clothing and many other unique and beautiful things.
Friday September 2nd Option to Walk the Labyrinth on Glastonbury Tor

You will have the option of taking this day to spend on your own, or coming with us for a Labyrinth Walk on Glastonbury Tor, led by our wonderful guides, John Wadsworth and Andree Bradu. On the Glastonbury Tor is a spiraling labyrinth which encircles the hill from base to peak.
“Ancient myths tell that pilgrims to the sacred island of Avalon would moor their boats upon the shore and, entering the great landscape labyrinth, begin a long ascent to the hilltop shrine. By following the winding labyrinth, they gained a deep attunement with the Tor’s terrestrial energies.” ~ Martin Grey.
John and Andreea will guide us along the way, a total of 8 hours of meditative walking and contemplation. The path is not easy to discern on your own these days. With their guidance, we will be able to stop along the way at the 7 chakra points for meditation and rest. They will a;sp bring certain ritual aspects to the walk, including working with sound, the chakras, the masculine / feminine polarity, astrology and the four elements.
Since this is an optional event, it is not included in the cost of the trip and will be an extra £85. (Cost of the Tor Labyrinth Walk is included for those who registered and participated in the 5-Day Walking Glastonbury.)

Saturday, September 3rd Cornwall

After a final breakfast at Pilgrims B&B, we will leave Glastonbury with Michael Orchard, former caretaker of the Chalice Well and our guide for these next two days, for our journey down to Cornwall, the land of the ancient Celtic and Arthurian legends.
We begin the day by driving down the Michael ley line into the wilds of Dartmoor, where we cross bridges over 4000 years old and wander in the magical Wistman’s Faerie Wood. Afterwards we climb up the holy Templar hill, Brentor, where a church greets us, perched on its peak as if held up only by magic and the energies of the Michael ley line.
We arrive in Tintagel where we settle into our B&B, and find a local pub for dinner.

Sunday, September 4th Tintagel, St Nectan's Glen, Bodmin Moor, the Hurlers and Cheesewring, Travel to Penzance
We start the day at the mystically beautiful St Nectan's Glen and waterfall. Here a space is held for the Fairies and the spirit of the 5th century Celtic Christian Saint Nectan. This is said to be the place where the Knights of the Round Table came to be blessed before their quest for the Holy Grail. We will also explore the delightful woodland of Rocky Valley, where we will discover the Bronze Age Labyrinths next to the river. These are over 3500 years old and are found amongst the ruins of an old mill, said to be built on the grounds of a wise women’s college.
We will then return to Tintagel to explore Tintagel Castle at the time that the tide reveals one of the most magical places, where it is said Merlin himself worked and initiated druids. We will bravely clamber into ‘Merlin's Cave’ where we will do a visualization. As we emerge from the darkness of the cave, we will look up towards Tintagel Castle, which is perched on the cliffs above the cave.
From here, we will make our way down to western Cornwall and the wonderful town of Penzance. We will arrive at our lovely new B&B, Rosemerryn in the late afternoon.

Our new home in Cornwall will be the lovely, quiet Rosemerryn House located a few miles outside of Penzance in Lamorna. The main house, where we will be staying, is a former artist's residence built at the turn of the twentieth century. (link)
Both the house and cottage are set in seven acres of magical woodland, which they share with a two thousand year old man made cave or temple, the Boleigh Fogou, which is just one of numerous such ancient Celtic sites to be found in the far west of Cornwall. The fogou was once part of an iron-age settlement perched on a knoll above the Lamorna River.
Having once been cultivated, part of the wood is graced with beautiful camellias and azaleas, and huge rhododendrons, while the rest is more densely wooded with native trees, ferns and wildflowers. Natural pathways, bordered by daffodils, bluebells and irises follow the stream that tumbles down through the valley to reach the sea at Lamorna Cove.

Monday, September 5th St. Michael's Mount and Merry Maidens Stone Circle

We will have some time to relax into our new home and visit the Boleigh Fogou, which is on the grounds of Rosemerryn B&B. It is considered to be one of the best remaining monuments of its kind in Cornwall. Found to be part of an iron-age site, this man made underground cave has survived pretty well intact for 2000 years. The word ‘fogou’ is derived from the Cornish word for cave – fogo - and indeed these fantastic constructions do not occur anywhere else in England. It is thought that birth and death rituals might have been carried out in the fogou, that it might have been used for initiation and spiritual ceremonies.

Timing our visit with the low tide, we will the visit St Michael's Mount which is just off the coast of Marazion in Mount's Bay. A dramatic rocky tor that rises out of the water and inspires magic, myth and mystery, this auspicious mount also lies directly on the Michael Alignment. There's a privately owned castle, a village and harbour to explore, and to add to its mystery, four powerful ley lines - the Michael, Mary, Apollo and Athena - all converge in one spot to the west of the castle! We will travel over by foot or boat, depending on the tides!
Tuesday, September 6th Zennor and the Mermaid Chair, Madron Well and Boscowen'un Stone Circle

Today, we will travel by car and visit some of the local sacred sites in Penwith, to the west of Penzance. We will start out our day at the Merry Maidens Stone Circle, located close to our B&B. From here, we will drive to Land's End, the most western point of Cornwall, and England, and onto Zennor where we will visit the village church and see the ancient Mermaid Chair.
We will eat a delicious lunch at the Kegen Teg in St Just before we head over to Men-an-Tol and Madron Well. This sweet well has long been revered for its magical and healing powers as well as its supply of water to the local community. Even today strips of cloth, or clouties, can be seen tied to surrounding branches and stand testament to its continued use.

We will walk a short distance on the often bleak downs of Penwith to experience the neolithic chambered tomb stones of Lanyon Quoit, as well as Men-an-Tol, another site of standing stones, one of which is round with a hole in it. Once again we will have an opportunity to dance and sing with the stone alignments of these sites.
"The hole is seen as the threshold of life and death or the birth canal from which all life emerges. To this day women crawl through it in the hope of becoming pregnant. Fertility and sexuality are the essence of this holed stone. The hole is also recognized as the woman's hole of wisdom, the gateway to the Earth goddess." Sally Griffyn, Sacred Journey

We will then drive over to Boscowen'un Stone Circle to complete our day. Composed of 19 evenly spaced granite uprights with a large (2.5m) single quartz obelisk in the middle, this is one of Cornwall's finest stone circles. It is aligned through the central menhir to nearby Men-An-Tol.
After a full and nourishing day, we will return to our lovely B&B for our last night all together and a catered dinner at the house.
