How to get here :
Batcombe is in between Bruton and Frome, off the A359. The nearest train station is Bruton, 3 miles away, though there are better connections to Castle Carey which is 25 minutes away.

The Weavers House is on the corner of Kale Street and Back Lane, with a sign on the front gate but this is quite low down to the eye. Sat Nav usually works but a useful local landmark to help find the house is a sign on Kale Street with “Designers Makers” on it. We are several houses pass this sign on the right hand side (if you have the sign on your left).
Parking is on our back drive, which is the first right as you turn onto Back Lane. Or you can park on Kale Street itself, but please be mindful tractors may need to get by and not to park in front of the wooden gates on the opposite side of the road! Please click here for a local Map.

“This is just a quick note (card to follow in the post), while I am having my tea break, to thank you for the most fantastic weekend at your lovely family home in Batcombe. It was such a pleasure to spend time in the company of like-minded people, and I so enjoyed the wonderfully energising yoga, delicious food and interesting workshops. I feel revived, renewed and revitalised! A very big Thank You!”
