Why

Bellevue?

Bellevue isn’t your typical practice. Set in a beautifully converted barn, our clinic offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere that instantly puts clients, pets, and team members ed near the thriving market town on Frome, voted to be one of the best places to live in 2025 and boasting exceptional scenery and architecture. Close to Bristol International Airport for quick getaways as well as Frome Railway Station, a branch line that loops onto the mainline railway with good links across the SW and London.

We are also never far from beautiful countryside walks and close to the Mendip Hills for the more adventurous of us: cycling, climbing, caving, skiing, snowboarding and water sports and many other outdoor adventures are on hand at Mendip Activity Centre.

We’re proud to be a modern, well‑equipped practice

Featuring:

• Two spacious consulting rooms (with scope for expansion and a dedicated Nurse Consult room)
• Dedicated theatre and prep area
• Digital X‑ray and ultrasound
• Separate dog and cat wards

Our close‑knit team of vets, nurses, and client care staff truly support one another in a collaborative environment, where wellbeing and professional development are just as important as patient care.

Work–Life Balance You’ll Love
