Beautiful Period Cottage nr Frome, Garden, Parking

Summary:

The Bower is a stylishly decorated, spacious, semi-detached cottage with three exceptionally comfortable rooms. Find two doubles and one super-king. The cottage has an outside table & chairs on a small private patio area, leading out from the French doors, which gives a great view of the wildflower meadow and makes a nice spot for a cup of coffee. Whatley is a lovely village close to Frome with attractive walks by the river to the pub in Nunney.



The Space:

The property features a fully equipped light & spacious yoga studio complete with Iyengar ropes, blocks and bricks. It also has a NOHrD bike and a boxing bag.



There is Sonos in the kitchen and yoga studio, a smart TV with Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney+ and Sky Q with movies and sports. There is also a smart TV in the yoga studio and an Apple TV with Apple Fitness.



There is room for a cot in each of the bedrooms upstairs.



The pool is available with shared access from 29th July to 17th August, 2026.



Guest Access:

The cottage has an open plan kitchen and living space. There is a tv room and a door leading to a corridor to the first bedroom and bathroom and then through to the boot room. Stairs from the tv room lead up to the landing with the next two bedrooms and bathrooms and the large yoga studio.



From the french doors in the living area you can walk out to the private outdoor space.



The Neighborhood:

Whatley is 3 miles from Frome and sits next to two other peaceful and attractive villages, Nunney and Mells.



Closest is Nunney which has an impressive medieval castle (with moat and resident ducks) which makes a great walk from the house. You can add a pub lunch at the George Inn, or a coffee and ice cream at the Moat and Turret cafe. In the other direction is Mells, a pretty village with a traditional cosy pub and delicious food called The Talbot Inn, definitely worth a visit.

Once a month the whole of Frome turns into a wonderfully vibrant street market, attracting artisan food and craft makers from far and wide.



The Bower is 10 minutes from Babington House and 15 minutes from Bruton where you can visit the beautiful gardens of the Newt and the world renowned art gallery Hauser & Wirth. The city of Bath is 35 minutes away.



Getting Around:

Due to the remote nature of rural Somerset, a vehicle is recommended to make the most of your stay here. Free parking is available on the private lane outside the property.



Other Things to Note:

The Bower is a private home and garden, but is part of a larger property where a family live. In the warmer months, you may hear children playing outside.
