When to visit Frome

Frome is a delight to explore throughout the year, but spring (late March to early June) and autumn (September to November) offer the most pleasant weather for sightseeing. These sunny, temperate months also coincide with popular sporting events and music festivals, promising wholesome experiences for families, couples, and solo travellers alike.

While July and August are the warmest months, September usually presents more favourable weather with a captivating backdrop as leaves begin to change colour.
