These properties are set in a small cluster of houses along a no-through road, just over 1 mile from the heart of Frome, a bustling market town with weekly markets and an ever-growing popular monthly market which takes over the town centre. There are cobbled, pedestrianised streets with rivulets running down, and an array of cafés, individual shops, leisure and entertainment. Herons’ Weir (ref EXY) and adjoining Dippers’ Folly (ref EXZ) have been converted from an old industrial workshop building and have been fitted out to a high standard with oak doors and furniture, and marble floors with underfloor heating on the ground floor. Each bedroom has its own bathroom or shower room, some of which are en-suite. The building sits next to the River Mells facing Jeffries Mill sluice and weir. Both cottages have riverside sitting areas from which to relax with a drink and enjoy the wildlife and ever changing river setting - there are always plenty of birds and you may be lucky enough to see the heron, dippers, kingfisher, fish jumping and otters. There are many picturesque villages within the region, offering great country and riverside walks, with a welcoming pub at the end. The area makes an ideal base from which to explore the surrounding attractions, including Stonehenge, Longleat House, Safari Park and Gardens, Wells Cathedral and Bishops Palace, the spiritual town of Glastonbury with its abbey and tor, the amazing Cheddar Gorge, the designer outlet village at Street, a number of National Trust properties and the Roman city of Bath, with its Georgian buildings, sweeping crescents, spa baths and lively culture. Shop, pub and restaurant 1½ miles.

The cottage was very clean and had everything you would need. Good quality furnishings. Sofa's not very comfortable - shiny leather which you kept sliding off of! Apart from that very nice.

Absolutely loved our stay at Dippers Folly. The cottage was very clean, cosy and well equipped, there was nothing we needed. The location was amazing and peaceful and we loved the views of the river from our balcony. The host Rachel was friendly and welcoming on arrival and she clearly has made every effort to make sure everyone has the best stay possible. Would highly recommend Dippers Folly to anyone looking for a peaceful stay in the countryside. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Our first escape from Lockdown so cleanliness and social distancing paramount. Garden perfect site to picnic with our family living locally and take aways whilst watching for kingfishers (3) and dippers (9) sightings between us. There are two dippers on the wall seen on our first evening - excitement means they are out of focus! Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
