Very smart accomodation, rooms very well presented with great decor. Very comfortable beds and good bathrooms. Very friendly owners and a simple and effective check in and out. Nice location in Fulford, on the edge of York centre and plenty of good pubs and restaurants in short walking distance.

Fantastic b&b in a quiet location in Fulford. Perfect for a York break with easy access to town and also the designer outlet. Lovely room with nice facilities. Highly recommended.

I only stayed for one night, however Ashbourne House is beautifully maintained and my room was exquisite for the price. I stay in London hotels a lot and I wish I could afford somewhere like this when I'm there because it would cost a fortune. Will definitely stay again.

We booked Ashbourne House on the back of all the reviews and it did not disappoint. Absolutely fantastic stay. Spotlessly clean, powerful shower, the most comfortable bed, all the little extra touches and Fiona and Ricardo were the best and most helpful hosts. There is a bus stop right opposite and just 10 minute journey into town. Highly recommend and would definitely use again if returning to York.

Fiona and Ricardo were very friendly and welcoming - upon arrival Fiona was kind enough to talk us through the best ways to get into town (which is only a 20 minute picturesque walk away along the river, or 5 mins on the bus which is very regular) and always served breakfast with a smile! The room was very comfy, clean and airy. We immediately decided to extend our stay for another night because we could tell we were going to enjoy our stay, and thankfully the room was available! The house is very well located, with bus stops close by and free parking on the adjacent road if there's no space left on the drive - with a couple of pubs down the road, the plough in particular had the best homemade chips ever, and delicious homemade pies. Thank you Fiona and Ricardo, we will certainly be back again!

A little way from the town centre. Only needed a base as it was only needed to sleep. But was comfy clean.

An excellent B&B, walked in to York along the river, its on a frequent bus route and Ubers from town reasonable. Super breakfast. Spacious king bedroom with a very Comftable bed. On site parking was limited.

Ricardo and Fiona are the consumate hosts. Checked us in quickly even though we arrived late. Made us feel completely at home. The property is very well kept. The rooms are lovely. Good light. Fresh. Very comfortable. It has easy access to the sites in York. This is where you should stay in York!

For a 1 night stay it's great. Good location and staff very friendly. Unfortunately the room was too small when you have 2 large suit cases and 2 carry on bags. No where to put bags. Also no air conditioning which made room hot.

My wife and I were victims of delayed and cancelled flights and a lost checked in bag at Heathrow. Not a good start to a vacation, but we texted Ashbourne House and Fiona sent us after hours directions to get in and did everything that she could to get us off to a good start and relieve our stress. The location is great and she gave us instructions for walking along the river to the center of the city, a short pleasurable walk. If you prefer, the bus is only a block or two away. Our room was clean and comfortable, with a good bed and it had everything that was needed for a pleasurable stay. She serves an excellent full English breakfast in the morning. It may or may not be included in the price depending upon your booking agent. Regardless, you will want to add it if it is not included. We highly recommend the Ashbourne House to anyone visiting York.
