Welcome to the site that celebrates the wonderful seventeenth century hunting lodge Ashdown House in Oxfordshire, UK. The Friends of Ashdown, a group of people who love historic houses, like Ashdown so much that they want to share it with everyone! On this site we will post information about Ashdown, its history, events taking place at the house and some stunning photographs. If you have any connection with Ashdown or the Craven family, or if you are interested in the history of the house and have research enquiries or if you love historic houses please post your comments or questions and we will do our best to answer them.
If you are visiting Oxfordshire on holiday in the UK or from overseas, the house is open on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons with guided tours at 2.15pm, 3.15pm and 4.15pm. We hope you will come and visit us for a warm welcome and a fascinating tour of one of the UK's most atmospheric and beautiful historic houses.

Great idea, Nicola, to raise the profile of this wonderful corner of Oxfordshire! Look forward to more Blog entries!
Thanks, John! I hope people will drop in to visit and contribute their ideas and pictures. Maybe we can post up some of your photos and link to PBase?? My technical skills are pretty basic and I'm trying to do this website/blogsite stuff without pestering Andrew for too much help!
