i recently stayed in ashford (kent) during a christmas party, and my experience at this guesthouse exceeded my expectations. the family room was spacious and immaculate, providing delightful views of the beautifully kept garden. breakfast featured freshly made dishes with eggs from the chickens outside, making every morning special.

more accessible seating in communal areas.

stayed in a twin room for a quick trip. downsview really feels like a home away from home! the building is beautiful, and the decor is gorgeous. the cleanliness is outstanding, far better than your usual b&b. the staff are super welcoming, and the service is first class.

strongly recommend

great base for exploring parks and landmarks

We loved our stay with a beautiful large bed and the relaxed, homely environment made it perfect for our family adventures. We were just a short walk from Ashford Borough Museum and picturesque parks for lovely strolls.

Beautifully restored Victorian house

The private kitchen was fantastic, while more accessible seating would have helped.

Comfortable base for an impromptu getaway

Booked last minute and ended up in a triple room, super comfy with a huge bathroom. The common lounge was a hit with books and games, and breakfast was surprisingly good! Just a bit noisy from the road outside – a bit tough for light sleepers like me. Still, overall, a nice spot for a short stay.

A warm welcome from Yvonne instantly made me feel at home. The room was impeccably clean, and the breakfast was both generous and delicious. I appreciated the option to use the kitchen for my evening meals, which added a unique touch to my stay. the location could have been more convenient, and I encountered some noise disturbances during my visit.

The family room was huge and super clean, really well-decorated too. I loved the charming view of the garden, especially with the fresh eggs from those cute chickens outside. It felt so cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxing getaway. Just a slight downside was that there wasn’t a lot of accessible seating in communal areas. But honestly, the room made up for that!

I had a lovely time—breakfast was incredible, especially the full English! The garden was a delightful surprise, perfect for relaxing. I can’t wait to return for another stay!

The apartment was spacious and clean, perfect for our family. Kids enjoyed the lovely garden, but we faced an issue with kitchen cleanliness. While staff were generally warm, checkout billing left a bad taste. a nice place but could benefit from attention to detail.

excellent access to parks and local attractions around ashford

I really enjoyed my stay here as it was so quiet and clean with lovely gardens perfect for starting morning walks, while being less than a kilometer from Conningbrook Lakes Country Park, which offered beautiful scenic views for a leisurely stroll.
