The only regret about our recent stay in Lunenburg at the Ashlea House? It was only for one night!!!! Arrived from Halifax after driving through pounding rain (remnants of a tropical storm), and we received a warm welcome from John and Lynn (and Schooner, who is just adorable). Stayed in Westmount Room, very nice. Town center (some nice shops) was... More

From the time we were greeted at the door until the time we left Lynn and John were so accommodating. The breakfasts were gourmet. Such a lovely variety. We stayed in the family suite, it was beautifully decorated. We would definitely return. Schooner was a delight. I highly recommend that you experience this wonderful b n b.

I went with my two daughters (2 and 5) for several nights at Ashlea House in Lunenburg for the long weekend. As you often are traveling with children, I was nervous about whether or not this would go well and much to my delight, it was PERFECT! The room (highly recommend for a single/couple with two kids) was beautiful, spacious... More

This was our third visit to the lovely Ashlea House and it's just like coming home! It was a delight to see John and Lynn again (and Schooner) and we even stayed in the same room as before (Westmount Room) which was just as we remembered. The last two times we visited in July so May was a bit cooler... More

We had such a lovely time in Lunenburg and we thank Lynn and John for that, they were such wonderful hosts. The house is lovely and they provided a wonderful breakfast which set you up for the rest of the day ;-) They gave us many suggestions for day trips and although I thought we had done a lot of...

We like B and Bs where guests sit together - makes it a wholly more sociable experience. Breakfasts here were a production - introduction to the many and varied dishes by our cheerful hosts and then feedback from the guests as they explored both new and familiar tastes. More than you could eat and sometimes a surprise at breakfast time... More

This B&B had been recommended to us by several folks in Nova Scotia. Our rooms were OK, but overall the proprietor seemed overwhelmed by a full house. Breakfast was OK. Maybe Lunenburg is such a heavy attraction that it's not too necessary to be competitive.

We truly feel badly that this person experienced a stay like this in Lunenburg. This review is so far out of our norm that we searched back through our records and memories and cannot recall this guest or a circumstance that would have caused this review and score. We value all comments from our guests yet wonder if it was... More

We stayed in Lynn's Bed and Breakfast for one night the first week of October. The house was lovely, the rooms wonderfully decorated, and Lynn's hospitality made us feel right at home. The Ashlea House is located in a very quiet area, walking distance to all attractions in Lunenburg. We felt as though we were the only guests, even though... More

All positives previously stated are accurate. Clean, comfortable, casual and gorgeous historic integrity maintained. Residential location with short walk to waterfront was ideal. As many, we thoroughly enjoyed the fresh seafood food at Knot Pub. Lynn, John and little Schooner, thanks for opening up your home for all of us to enjoy. We really did feel the warm welcome.
