The Ashton

We have stayed several times over the years as its such a wonderful place to stay for so many reasons.Its a very relaxing place which is uniquely built and furnished.You are always made to feel so welcome by the atmosphere and staff.

A most enjoyable one night stay, we wished we had booked .more nights. James was a perfect host , very helpful and friendly but not intrusive. His breakfast was delicious, lots of fresh fruit and excellent choice of cooked food . The decor and furnishings were interesting and original it felt very homely but incredibly stylish. We will definitely be back .

Lovely place to stay. On our arrival we were warmly greeted by the owner. The breakfast was delicious with very fresh products. We really enjoyed staying there.

What a lovely find the Ashton is. James greeted us with a glass of wine and the most delicious bakewell tart I’ve ever tasted. Our room was very comfortable and had lots of great extras like sweet treats, quirky books, high quality toiletries and a fantastic shower. Breakfast was delicious and I wish we’d had longer to dwell over it, Shame it was for only one night this time but we’ll definitely be back for a longer stay.

I have booked a night as I travel to Lancaster a lot with work. The place looks very nice and homely on pictures however upon arrival I felt I was the only person in there. The service was okay however upon my arrival I found out that there was no restaurant available at the place. It was quite late to take a taxi into town. I came down to ask for the Iron and the Ironing board but no luck as I could not find anyone downstairs. The James' Favorite room was very spacious so as bathroom but very cold indeed. The breakfast was served until 9:30 so bare that in mind as other places usually serve until 10:30-11:00. Overall, I do not think I would return for another £145 per night as there are other places in Lancaster that can deliver better service for a reasonable value.
