Our Rooms

Building work is currently underway to create our new, comfortable, rooms. All rooms have an en-suite shower room. And, of course, you have access to our shared spaces, giving you plenty of room to relax.

We’ll be sharing photos as soon as we can.

We will have the following rooms, which can be booked individually or as a group:

  • One en-suite bedroom sleeping two people in a bunk bed
  • One en-suite bedroom sleeping three people (1x bunk bed, 1x single bed)
  • One accessible en-suite bedroom sleeping four people (2x bunk beds), which has a wet room
  • Two en-suite bedrooms sleeping six people (3x bunk beds)
  • Two en-suite bedrooms sleeping seven people (3x bunk beds & 1x single bed)

 

Shared Spaces

Gateway Lodge is for people wanting more than just a stay in a hotel room. Our comfortable shared areas give you space to relax, as well as all of the practical things you need.

The new facilities include:

  • A beautiful, light & airy lounge, in a new extension which will overlook the community garden
  • A dining area, with space for everyone to have a seat, whether you’re self-catering or having a takeaway
  • A completely new kitchen, with two cooking stations.
  • A drying room & laundry – because we know that it sometimes rains!
  • Secure bike storage
  • Access to the community garden (scheduled to open Summer 2026)
  • And, of course, free Wi-Fi

There will also be board games & books to borrow, plus a couple of OS Maps in case you need to plan an adventure.

We’re located right in the centre of Ashbourne, with lots of nearby facilities, including a Sainsburys within 4mins walk, plus lots of independent shops, cafes, takeaways and leisure facilities.

There’s a drop-off point immediately outside Gateway Lodge, and a very reasonably priced public car park within 50 metres (less than 2 mins walk), offering overnight parking for just £1 (6pm-8am). All-day parking will be just £2 from April 2026. If you’re travelling by public transport, Ashbourne Bus Station is within 4mins walk.
