Situation
Church cottage is one of a cluster of pretty houses that make up the small hamlet of Cloford. Situated down a no through road it is a haven of peace and tranquillity with no through traffic. St Marys Church that dates from the 15th century is picture perfect and acts as a beautiful backdrop to the house.
Although a rural idyl, Cloford is only 5 miles from Frome, one of the South West's leading market towns and recently featured in the Sunday Times as the best place to live in Somerset. It has become a "foodie hipster haven" due to the influx of young families, with St Catherine's Hill at the centre of the artisan quarter. The town has a comprehensive choice of retail outlets and all the usual amenities. Founded in 2013, the "Frome Independent" is an award-winning independent street market that is held on the first Sunday of every month and attracts 80,000 people a year.
Also, within 15 minutes’ drive is fashionable Bruton with its bustling high street, home to a florist, a pharmacy, and a variety of boutiques. The renowned restaurant “At the Chapel” and the world-famous art gallery “Hauser and Wirth” are both on the doorstep. The pretty market town of Castle Cary is a few miles to the west, and offers several independent shops, pubs, interiors retailers and a bookstore. Other local attractions include the newly opened country estate “The Newt in Somerset” and Stourhead gardens to the South.
Travel connections are good with easy access to the A303 that links London to the West Country. Rail links are excellent with trains from Frome, Bruton and Castle Cary to Paddington and Waterloo in London.
Schools
Excellent local schools in the area include King’s School Bruton and Bruton School for Girls, and the state boarding school - Sexey's, which has received the highest performing 6th form award in Somerset. Bruton has its own primary school and, in proximity, are Downside, Millfield, Hazlegrove and All Hallows prep school.
