Neighbourhood information

Our hidden gem is tucked behind secure gates in the farmyard at Blatchbridge Farm, offering guests a wonderful, peaceful and relaxing stay. Blatchbridge is a pretty hamlet only five minutes’ drive / thirty minutes’ walk from Frome with its independent market, shops and diverse cuisine. The local pub, The Cross Keys, is a minutes’ walk from the cottage, offering good bitter, cider, and food. Its location on the door step to two AONB - the Mendip Hills and Cranborne Chase - makes for ample walks and cycling, with walks along the nearby river Frome. The Old Parlour is also a great base for exploring Bath, Wells, Wookey Hole, Longleat House and Safari Park and tucked away gems like Nunney Castle. There are good railway links and easy access to the A361 and B3092, making Stonehenge, Salisbury, Bristol and the Mendips all within an hour’s drive.
