Gillian
Well situated in Ashbourne's historical centre with restaurants and take- aways conveniently near. Parking on premises a bonus. Jane could not have been more helpful and generous in making our stay a success: excellent joining instructions, easy communications throughout our stay and generous extras including wine and chocolates. Very good value and strongly recommended.

Really enjoyed staying there. Private parking was a bonus. Ashbourne itself is well situated for exploring the Dales & Peak District.
