Somerset Location

Our Location: A Home in the Heart of Somerset


Image

All Hallows School is nestled within the beautiful and historic countryside of Somerset, offering a unique and inspiring location for a child’s education. Our campus, Cranmore Hall, is situated in East Cranmore, near the town of Shepton Mallet. This stunning rural setting provides a peaceful and spacious environment for our pupils to learn and explore, while being conveniently close to major cities and transport hubs across the South West.

The school's history is deeply intertwined with its location. Cranmore Hall, the main school building, has a history that dates back to the 17th century. The local area is rich in charm, with nearby towns like Frome and Bruton, and the vibrant cities of Bath and Bristol just a short journey away.

Our Location: A Home in the Heart of Somerset

We believe our location should be a strength, not a barrier. We have designed our transport services to make school life convenient for families across the region. Our private minibus services cover several key routes, and our team is always happy to discuss creating new routes based on demand.

Our current routes serve families from a variety of areas, including:

  • Bath – Hinton Charterhouse – Norton St Philip – Rode - Beckington - Frome
  • Bishop's Sutton – Stanton Drew – Temple Cloud – Paulton – A37
  • Stourton - Kilmington - Bruton - Batcombe
  • Butleigh - Baltonsborough - A37 - Shepton Mallet

The location also provides excellent access for parents. With direct access to the A303 and a close proximity to major routes, our school is a manageable journey for families in neighbouring regions.

A Part of the Local Community

Our school is more than just a place of education; it is an active and engaged member of the local community. We are proud to participate in and support local events, such as the Frome Arts Festival and the Bath and West Show. This involvement ensures our pupils develop a strong sense of social responsibility and connection to the world around them.
The best way to truly appreciate our location and community is to experience it for yourself. We invite you to visit our campus, feel the energy of our school, and see what makes All Hallows a special place to learn and grow.
