Our 4th visit to Ashridge, and maybe our last. The site itself is lovely, small and usually quiet (apart from house building going on behind the site). Facilities are always clean, although there is a need for an update, and the wardens are always nice and cheerful. Its close enough for a 20m evening walk to Ashwell to visit the nice pubs, and for a stroll round the village. The problem for us is getting to the train station which is a 2 mile 30m walk, half of which is along a narrow and busy lane with no pavement. Whilst this is doable in daylight, coming back as we did in the evenings means walking at least a mile in the pitch dark, trying to make sure cars saw you to avoid you. The train service is very good to get into London or as in our case to visit family in Stevenage, but after one near miss I think we will have to stop. If you have your own transport this is indeed a lovely site.
