From Frome there are direct services to Westbury (10 mins), Salisbury (41 mins) and Bristol Temple Meads (1 hour 14 mins). The property is within the Marston Trading Estate, which lies on the southern outskirts of the town just to the north of the A361 Glastonbury and Shepton Mallet to Trowbridge and Melksham road and just to the west of the B3092 Frome to Shaftesbury Road.
