Ashton House B&B is a listed 17th century former farmhouse, right in the middle of the village of Painswick, full of delights. The inglenook fireplace has a Cromwellian fireback. The “priest’s hole” in one of the guest rooms was probably used in the English Civil War. The house has a wealth of exposed ancient timbering, stonework and flagstones.
Painswick, the “Queen of the Cotswolds”, is a picturesque medieval wool town, built in a mellow Cotswold stone quarried locally. The narrow streets are full of interest. The 15th Century post office building is the oldest in the country. The church, with its famous tombs and 99 yew trees, bears battle scars on the tower from the Civil War. We boast the oldest village rugby club in England, and the oldest bowling green. There are plenty of shopping, recreational and visitor opportunities immediately on hand. The Cotswold Way national trail passes nearby, and there are numerous other footpaths to explore in the surrounding countryside.
We have Bed and Breakfast accommodation for up to 7 adults -
