A beautiful well laid out property, with lots of spaces inside and out, perfect for family and friends to enjoy. Set in central Ashbourne and nestled on a quiet hillside with unobstructed views to the open countryside, itâs a short walk to the colourful market square with shops, cafes, and pubs to visit.
