With some of the finest Roman and Georgian architecture in the UK it is no surprise that Bath is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Spend a day visiting the Roman Baths, the spectacular Abbey and infamous Royal Crescent, soak up some culture in the museums, galleries and theatre, or simply indulge in a day of browsing the boutique shops, fantastic cafes and mouth-watering resturants. Other local attractions include Stonehenge, Longleat Safari Park, Babington House and the National Trusts Prior Park Landscape Garden. Just five miles away, the charming market town of Frome with it's regular markets, array of independent shops and fascinating historical buildings, is also worth a visit.
With 55 acres of ancient woodlands, wildflower meadows, streams and lakes to explore at Upper Vobster Farm you would also be forgiven for not straying far from home. There is a nature conservation area and preservation area for birds of prey where you are likely to spot kestrels, red kites and buzzards, as well as kingfishers and woodpeckers. Or enjoy a quiet afternoon in the summerhouse on the beach of one the lakes, meander through the bluebell woods in the spring or go blackberry picking in the autumn. You can meet the pygmy goats and rare breed North Ronaldsay sheep who live in their very own castle, and enjoy fresh eggs from the ducks and hens.
With bookings available all year round it is easy to plan an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life to this peaceful oasis at Upper Vobster Farm.
