We enjoyed our stay. Since we were up early, I barely saw someone in the kitchen/breakfast area. I like that Ashley offers sufficient fridge space -- great for people who travel with food. I did not attempt to cook in the kitchen but there is a stove and some pots and pans.
I also loved the garden area. There are several sitting areas for smaller and larger groups amidst a green ground cover, flowering pots and under a lovely tree. It's really inviting and well cared for. The garden sets the house back from the street and makes for fairly quiet nights in the room even on weekends.
Ashley runs this 9 bedroom B&B well.
