Holmwood Coach House

We have had a great holiday. The coach house is a lovely place to stay and a fantastic base for exploring this part of the country. Stourhead and Wells are both lovely at this time of year. We really liked Lacock too. The shops, pubs, places to eat and the cinema in Frome are all great. Thanks for a fab holiday. We will be staying again.

We've had a lovely week. Frome highlights are Holy Trinity Church with the Burne-Jones stained glass windows - stunning. We arrived mid service and were welcomed and stayed for coffee! The various Frome trails are excellent - what a variety of architecture and all trails include some local history. We ate at Castello and Bistro Lotte, both very good. Loved the independent shops... Thank you to Nicola and Chris for a lovely property and for so much useful information.”

"We all wanted to say a really huge thank you for such a beautiful stay at Holmwood Coach House! It really was a fabulous place to spend the weekend- so clean and comfortable and in such a beautiful setting. Don’t think we’ve ever stayed anywhere so well-looked-after before! So hope we can come back one day!"

We've had a very happy stay, thank you. Your attractive house is very comfortable, well appointed, peaceful and yet only a few minutes walk from the centre of Frome. It has been an ideal and convenient base for our birthday celebrations and the weather has been a Spring bonus.

We enjoyed our week in Frome, despite the April showers, but lovely to be staying in such a peaceful and comfortable cottage. So well equipped and a fantastic garden - the fox only seemed to visit when the sun was shining! Frome has so much to offer but foodwise we can recommend Old Bath Arms in Palmer Street - the steaks are fantastic - and Castello Italian restaurant . The property is ideally situated for walking into Frome in the evenings and leaving the car behind. Also convenient for visiting the many tourist attractions.

A lovely property in the heart of Frome. Nicola's garden is just beautiful and I can imagine relaxing there and enjoying the nature. This place has a lot of tranquillity to it, and the house itself is well appointed and has everything you will possibly need. Available books and guides contain all the information on things to see and places to eat.

A lovely, comfortable and peaceful retreat within walking distance of Frome town centre, and the Saturday market. We only had time for a flying visit, it was handy for us going to a concert at Wiltshire Music Centre in Bradford on Avon. We will be back for a longer stay next time.

The Coach House is a very comfortable, very quiet, well appointed house with easy access on foot to an interesting town full of diverting independent shops and excellent eateries. We had a very relaxing, quiet time in the Coach House and in Frome and will certainly think of returning one day.

Thank you Nicola and Chris for another relaxing week at the coach house. We enjoyed walking around Witham Friary and visiting the historic Seymour Arms pub. Great to see young artists in Britain at the 'Present Tense' exhibition at Hauser & Wirth, and visit St Mary's Church. Bruton also a great place to walk. We can recommend The Talbot Inn at Mells, for a celebration and the Mells village cafe. Despite the wet weather, the wildlife in the garden has been fantastic - especially the great spotted woodpecker and nuthatch. Best of all the screaming foxes getting frisky on the lawn! Thank

After almost six weeks in the UK, we ended our trip here. We have stayed in many places in the UK and the US, and the coach house is the very best. The location is stunning and private. The house is flawlessly appointed with great attention to detail that is apparent in every room. The many windows and skylights bring in abundant light. We had lunch outside with apples pulled from the trees, and we listened to the caw of the jackdaws and were convinced that no one could feel stressed in the midst of all that calm and beauty. We are grateful to Nicola and Chris and can't wait to return.

Everything is perfect, thank you! I’m so glad I came. You have the most magical garden. I could look at it all day.

Your coach house is just wonderful! We have had a lovely time.

Tastefully designed. VERY clean. Charming hosts. Beautiful location.

If you're looking for a place to unwind, chill and relax Holmwood House will allow you to achieve this. Frome is also near some lovely places to visit without having to drive long distances. We enjoyed our visit to the beautiful city of Bath and Salisbury and the cathedral is well worth the trip.

'As others have said, the coach house is a tastefully equipped, creative conversion and so a delightful place to stay. With restaurants and shops just ten minutes walk away, it's very convenient too. We were drawn by the EV charging point, as this was our first long drive in our new electric car. It was so nice to arrive, unload, plug in and then go out and eat. This is the future of staycations!'

What a lovely place to stay! Such a peaceful spot in the arms of nature. From our window we watched a mother and baby fox playing in the meadow this morning. Frome market, what a hoot! Such a collection of characters and cake! Then back to our beautiful, tranquil hideaway. Thank you so much for your excellent hospitality.

We were so fortunate to find Holmwood Coach House, a beautiful self-catering cottage with every amenity possible. Nicola and Chris have thought of everything and the attention to detail is so evident. It was easy to find and so convenient to walk into town to enjoy what Frome has to offer. So many sites to see from this 'home base', and yet we felt so comfortable just taking a day off, putting up our feet and catching up with correspondence etc. Nicola and Chris have real gem here, and we heartily recommend their coach house to everyone. Thanks again Nicola and Chris

It just gets better every time we visit the Coach House. Here in crisp, sunny, deep frost. We’d recommend a trip to Avebury, fantastic walk across ancient landscape. Also, The Talbot Inn at Mells, and town trail from the walks folder. Wonderful to see red kites flying several times. Enjoyed great art at Hauser & Wirth too. Thank you Nicola and Chris for a lovely holiday. We’ll be back.

“We have watched blackbirds, redwing, blue tits, great tits, a jay, several thrushes and two very fat wee squirrels enjoy the festive feast of crab apples: an entertainment in itself is that tree. Owls hoot at night. Despite being blighted by colds, we have loved the cosiness of the place and having spent longer indoors than we usually would it’s been great to be in a home from home. Enjoyed Hauser & Wirth Gallery; Wells and the Cathedral were pretty and impressive. On New Years Day, Frome was a pleasant town to wander in.

A very enjoyable stay in a lovely property. The Coach House is in an excellent location - quiet and peaceful, yet easy access into Frome centre. It's clear that a lot of thought has gone into making the guests' stay so enjoyable. Watching the foxes playing in the garden was a lovely way to end our holiday. High Pavement Restaurant highly recommended.
