Setting the Scene
Nestled in the rolling countryside of Wiltshire, the highly desirable village of Colerne is brimming with timeless charm. Its pretty streets and honey-coloured stone buildings create an inviting first impression, while a rich sense of history lingers around every corner.

At the heart of village life you’ll find everything needed for easy, everyday living, a convenience store for essentials, a welcoming café, hairdressers, a post office, and the much-loved Fresh Flower Company, renowned for its beautiful bouquets. Two characterful pubs, The Fox and Hounds and The Six Bells, offer hearty food, good company, and a fine pint by the fire.

Standing proudly at the centre of it all is the village’s ancient church, dating back to 1190, a peaceful landmark steeped in heritage and a warm welcome for newcomers and long-time residents alike.

Beyond the village lanes, open countryside unfolds in every direction. With more than a dozen circular walks ranging from gentle rambles to more invigorating routes quite literally on your doorstep, there’s no shortage of ways to step outside and breathe in the beauty of nature.

Families are well served by Colerne Primary School, rated ‘Good’ by OFSTED, and there are convenient bus routes to secondary schools in both Bath and across Wiltshire.

Perfectly positioned, Colerne is especially appealing to commuters seeking the calm of village life without sacrificing connectivity. The village lies just seven miles northeast of the historic city of Bath and eight miles from Chippenham. With excellent access to the M4 motorway and rail services from Bath Spa and Chippenham stations offering swift routes to London Paddington, you can enjoy the best of both worlds: countryside tranquillity with the city within easy reach.

Full profileProperty listings
I am Melissa Anderson, Founder and Director of Camella. For the past 13 years I have worked as a Director at Rightmove, consulting estate agents and developers on how to market their properties to accelerate property sales and achieve the best possible asking price. I have developed a real passion for property with a desire to modernise the way for buyers and sellers to purchase their homes. Using traditional estate agent methods coupled with technology, Camella is on a mission to improve the home moving journey and take the stress away from one of the biggest investments in people’s lives. I am a proud Bathonian and fortunate to have lived and raised my family in the beautiful city of Bath for over 40 years. I attended St Gregory’s Catholic school in Bath, St Brendan’s Sixth form college and graduated from University of South Wales with a BA Hons in Advertising and Media. My local knowledge of the city, suburbs, and surrounding villages allows me to offer advice on schools, amenities, community hubs and dog walks, which I often take with my cockapoo Molly. There are many reasons for moving home and sometimes the journey is an emotional challenge. During my property career sellers have shared stories about a lack of service, empathy, and communication, causing unnecessary stress. At Camella whatever your circumstance we will work with you to make your property sell or purchase an enjoyable experience. Camella was born on International Woman’s Day bringing kindness and happiness into the property buying and selling process, putting people at the heart of moving home.
