I've stayed at B&Bs all across the English-speaking world, and the Ashlea House in Lunenburg NS is my absolute favorite, mostly due to the gracious hospitality of the owners, John and Lynn. I'm an adventurous sort who rarely stays at the same place twice, but a stay at the Ashlea House has become an integral part of my annual excursion... more

When you plan to stay at a B and B on a trip, the Ashlea House is the one that should come to mind. You hope that where you are booking your stay will be as wonderful as our stay in Lunenburg. The Ashlea House, itself, is as warm and welcoming as the hosts, John and Lynn, who go out... more

The location is deceiving. It is a short walk to town because there is a foot path that cuts off about a mile of street. So this place is very convenient yet not in the middle of town. The upper rooms have a lovely view of the harbor. The place is charming,clean and the hosts are friendly. The beds were... more

We stayed one, pleasant, comfortable night and morning. Lynn made us feel at home the moment we arrived at the front door. The house is a gem. The restoration is excellent. Lunenburg should be happy that the Ashlea house is along the entry road to display the charm and comfort of this historic town. Lynn was a genial host.. Breakfast... more

My mother and I traveled all throughout Nova Scotia in August. One of our most delightful stays was at Ashlea House. It was nice to find a bed and breakfast with two twin beds. Innkeepers Lynn and John were most accomodating. Upon our arrival they quickly called and made dinner reservations for us for that evening. At breakfast in the... more

We recently stayed two nights in the Westmount Room at the Ashlea House in Lunenberg. This is a delightful B&B across from the waterfront and located within walking distance of downtown Lunenberg. The owners, Lynn and John, and their two adorable Nova Scotian Duck Tollers, Schooner and Dory, were impeccable hosts and even better cooks. Our room was quite comfortable... more

I reserved 2 rooms for August for our nite in Lunenburg back in May. Sent a deposit as requested. We arrived in Portland,ME to board the "Cat" high speed ferry to travel to NS. However, the remnents of hurricane Danny prevented the boat from making the trip the day we were scheduled to leave for NS. We called the Ashlea... more

John and I understand that cancellation policies vary widely; that's why our 48-hour policy is clearly noted in a confirmation email. We do not take deposits in any amount. We also do our best to re-rent the cancelled room, in which case we do not charge anything at all. Most of the time, we're successful; in this case, we were...

We stayed at Ashlea House for 3 nights during our first ever trip to Nova Scotia. The house is delightful with its well decorated and well maintained rooms and great common spaces. We stayed in the Family room with our 2 teenagers - who knew that one could "share a bed with" Ed Broadbent (former Canadian NDP leader) and Kim... more

The Ashlea House is a lovely and lovingly restored home. Lynn, the owner, made us feel instantly welcome. Our room was immaculate and comfortable. We relaxed on the porch, in the front parlor and in the enclosed widow's walk, where we had a nice view of the harbor. The location was ideal for walking into town. An adequate breakfast was... more

We loved Ashlea House. John and Lynn were kind and went out of their way to help us. Location was perfect - only 5 min walk to harbour and shops! Breakfast was delicious with great company. The house was incredibly beautiful and the room was lovely. A great stay! more
