Lovely food, excellent staff

We arrived in Durrow not realising the Scarecrow Festival was on, the village was thronged. Castle Durrow, where we had planned to dine, was closed to the public. We ventured into the Ashbrook Arms thinking we never get a table as it was very busy....More

Excellent place to eat

We visited the Ashbrook arms yesterday for a family meal for confirmation. The food was excellent. Generous portions with simply wonderful flavours. The service was quick and extremely attentive. Would definitely recommend the ambiance of this venue for a meal.

Lovely Guesthouse

This is a wonderful guesthouse to stay in especially if you are attending a wedding in the nearby Castle Durrow Hotel. Very friendly and kind owners/staff, nothing was too much hassle. Would highly recommend.
