Ashby - The Location

The ancient, historic market town of Ashby (with its famous 15th century castle) almost certainly dates back to Roman times. Later, in the early 19th century, it became a spa town. Many of the Georgian style buildings that you now see were built to accommodate visitors to the Baths. Today, Ashby de la Zouch is a thriving and bustling town within the National Forest and enjoys a wide range of good shops, schools, pubs, churches and local amenities. The nearby M42 motorway gives easy access to the M1, M5 and M6 and many other Midland towns and cities. The town is also convenient for the Nottingham East Midlands airport.

Cliftonthorpe Hall

This impressive Victorian mansion, dating back to around the mid-1870s, has been tastefully converted into luxury executive-style apartments by renowned local builders, Lychgate Homes, to provide spacious and versatile accommodation for the most discerning of purchasers. The house is approached by a long and winding road 0.2 miles from the top end of Smisby Road and stands in an elevated position overlooking trees and open countryside in all directions. The gravelled courtyard at the front of the building is guarded by electrically operated double wrought iron gates for maximum security. Once inside the courtyard, there is parking for many vehicles and garage blocks to the left and right. To the rear of the building is a large communal private landscaped garden. All fixtures and fittings are of the highest specification and, as you would expect from a property of this standard, benefits from gas central heating and double glazing throughout. For added security, the apartments are alarmed and most have secure entry phone systems. The main building faces in a southerly direction and gives rooms at the front a light and airy feel to them. The overall impression of the apartments is one of spaciousness and modern luxury.
