| There was a time when Glastonbury’s famous tour was the talk of the town. It still is, but now somewhat overshadowed by the world’s top musicians and stars descending on the nation’s most famous farm for a 100,000 strong annual music marathon and/or sludge fest. But when they leave, Glastonbury becomes a serene picture of rural perfection. A stone’s throw from historic Cheddar and just a hop skip and a jump from beautiful Devon, you can be sure our Glastonbury launch site is a feast for the eyes. Take off, drift over incredible landscape then land in any one of thousands of empty fields. There’s no better way to explore one of Somerset’s biggest boasts than from the basket of a Virgin hot air balloon.
