Frome St Quintin is a village in the county of Dorset in southern England, situated in the West Dorset administrative district approximately 11 miles (18 km) northwest of the county town Dorchester.

There are naturally occurring springs in the area and the first habitation is likely to have been during the Roman era. The parish church dates from the 13th century.
