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.

Lynn and her dog, Schooner: what a pleasant welcome. Lynn alone made our stay particularly memorable. She is funny, friendly, and her laugh is contagious. The inn is located outside the boundaries of Old Town Lunenburg, but no matter. It is a nice, short stroll through a park to get to the Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic and the town's... More

My husband and I spent three days at the Ashlea House in September. We were part of a party of four couples traveling together and all sharing September wedding anniversaries. We chose Ashlea House because of it's good reviews on Trip Advisor and because it had nice rooms available for all in our group. We were all happy with our... More

This was our first trip to Nova Scotia, and our first stop had to be in Lunenberg. When I booked this B&B, it seemed to represent the history of such a beautiful town-well when we arrived and I walked in, you felt like you stepped back in time. The parlours were decorated beautifully and a large dining room, the fantastic... More
