“Ashbourne's heart is easily reached from this well-situated house, its central position surprising given the quietude and the bonus of secure parking. Breakfast is clearly a highlight, a robust start to the day, complemented by genuinely welcoming hosts who ensure a comfortable, traditional B&B experience.”
