To be a
guest at the Ashley Inn is to step back into a quieter, more relaxed
period of time...but with all the modern conveniences.
Built
in 1876 for shoe merchant A.P. Hollenbeck, the Classic Revival house
became the home of the Deely family from 1887 until 1940. The Deelys
owned quarries in Lee which provided marble for several of the
turn-of-the-century Berkshire estates (and the Ashley Inn veranda). In
the 1980's the house was completely renovated and became an inn
shortly thereafter. Current innkeepers Dawn and Paul Borst, seasoned
travelers themselves, are particularly suited to innkeeping, knowing
first-hand the extra special touches that make guests welcome and
comfortable.
The Ashley Inn is ideally located in a
residential neighborhood - yet 2/10 of a mile from downtown Lee's
restaurants and shops and a block from Greenock Country Club's golf
course and tennis courts, open to the public. Ashley Inn's location
also provides easy access to Berkshire cultural attractions.
We
offer several bedrooms on the second floor - each furnished in its own
individual style with antiques, some handed down through our family,
some purchased with care from estate sales. Each room features
oversize, airy windows, private bath, bureau, reading lamps and
comfortable chairs. Some with a queen-sized bed, another a four-poster
with mahogany/birdseye maple headboard, another a brass bed frame.
