Laid back cottage in quirky Frome

Peaceful cottage, part of terraced houses built in 1820s for a community of weavers, each with its own allotment area, tucked away from roads on the edge of town. Easy parking on the road, with access up a footpath. On 3 floors, so maybe not the best if stairs are an issue. Long sunny gardens front and back with gorgeous sunset views. There's a strong community network here, so friendly neighbours will be on hand for local knowledge. Lotte the resident cat is independent but friendly. King size bed on 2nd floor, small double bed on 1st floor. Cottage ceiling and door heights, so if you're much over 6', be prepared to duck through doorways. Cosy cabin at the end of the garden is a good spot for reading or drawing. Depending on time of year, there will be veggies for you to enjoy.

About the location

I had to say 'urban' as nothing else really describes my home, but it feels very much like living in a village within a 10 minute walk into the town. Frome is a market town in Somerset, 30 minutes from Bath, an hour from Bristol, within easy reach of Glastonbury, Wells, Longleat, The Newt, and lots of gorgeous countryside. Good bus & train connections but a car would be handy. Frome is a lively and creative town, with lots of historic listed buildings, with large independent markets (food/farmers/vintage/crafts) and great places for food and drink.
