Sambogaya Boutique Hostel & Retreat Venue

Sambogaya is a boutique hostel and retreat venue in Glastonbury, Somerset, created for organisers seeking a distinctive, peaceful setting for retreats, workshops, residential programmes and intimate celebrations. Located near Chalice Hill and within easy reach of Glastonbury town centre, the venue combines comfortable accommodation with flexible event facilities and a strong sense of wellbeing.

At the heart of Sambogaya is the Temple Room, a characterful space suitable for yoga, movement, meditation, talks, workshops, film screenings and other small-scale gatherings. The room includes a sprung oak floor, underfloor heating, integrated sound equipment, microphones, a projector and screen. Depending on the layout, it can accommodate movement groups, yoga sessions or seated audiences of up to around 50 people. Evening events are subject to quiet-hours arrangements, making the venue particularly well suited to reflective and wellness-focused programmes.

Organisers can hire the venue for residential retreats with exclusive use of the house, including six bedrooms for groups of up to 15 overnight guests. Retreat bookings may include access to the reading room, fully equipped kitchen, Zen garden, hot tub, sauna and ice bath. An in-house retreat chef can provide catering for residential groups, allowing facilitators to concentrate on their programme rather than daily logistics.

Sambogaya also welcomes bespoke small weddings of up to 50 guests and can help organisers source celebrants, caterers, DJs and musicians. The venue’s bohemian interiors, meditation spaces, landscaped garden and proximity to Glastonbury’s spiritual landmarks create a memorable backdrop for intimate ceremonies, creative gatherings, wellbeing events and transformational retreats.
