As the apartment sits right in the centre on a historic cobbled street, there is unfortunately no parking right outisde. However, Merchants Barton car park is only a 5 minute walk and Cattle Market car park is only a 7 minute walk. The cost is a maximum of £6.50 per day and is FREE on Sundays. There is also some free parking on the outskirts of town.
And once you're parked up, you won't need to go back to the car and can enjoy Frome on foot!
Other Things to Note:
Due to the size of the property, there is limited storage so we are not able to provide logs for the wood burner. There are lots of places where logs can be purchased nearby, however.
