The information sent through was very useful. We found being in the centre of Ashbourne very convenient and the parking was a bonus. Takeaway from Chinese underneath was delicious. Would definitely recommend and look forward to visiting again. Thank you Pauline and Dougie

Spotlessly clean. In an ideal location with pubs and restaurants a short walk away. A few extra cups and more cutlery would mean you could make better use of the dishwasher.

Some of paintwork in bathroom showing small signs of use (could be expected late in season). Bathroom door lock was broken and bathroom doors didnât close properly. Very clean, cosy and comfortable throughout. Had a great stay
