Lovely area, on a pretty stretch of the main road. Not far from the centre, on the main bus route and a short walk from most things you need. A bit far from any big shops but easy to get an Asda delivery or something and the new Lidl just past St Werburgh's isn't too far away.

A lovely area and I encourage everyone to live there. We were just next to Redland station so Gloucester Road was just down the road.

A mix really. Neighbours were not great. The mansions around the rear were also owned by quite horrid people who would damage our motorcycles parked overnight. There was an attempted theft on my motorcycle and damage caused, along with finding it kicked over another night. Not great when you own a BMW R1200GS.... My housemate's Triumph was also ran over while parked by a neighbour. Students were very loud all around on nights out late. For a Clifton location we were shocked with the neighbourhood!

Wonderful neighbours and a beautiful area.
There is another student house to one side and a family on the other side.

Ashley down is now expensive to live in so when this came up I jumped on it. I love ashley down road and always will. The local co op is sky high so go to the tescos a mile up the road instead or even the new Lidl and home bargains etc and you will save massively. The pubs are generic and gentrified but the golden lion has character and is worth a bash as it seems to be the only live music pub in the area! There's a corner shop that I grew to love in the end. Open till 2am most nights. Takeaways wise the Southern fried chicken and pizza place ( opposite Sainsbury's) is the best for pizza, very very good pizza and cheap. Dominos is twice the price and not as good! There's a few chipys and there all stingy portions aside the posh one near Sainsbury's which gives a massive portion for like 8 quid. Avoid the maxin chicken place. All the Currys and Chinese places are medium average quality i dont reccomend. There's a veg shop that's the best in bristol and cheap also! I will miss living here literally the area has it all, there's no trouble at all

I personally loved living there. The house is by a busy road, but the windows are good and block most of the noise. I was lucky and could see both - the sun rise and sun set from my bedroom windows! Really good transport links just few mins walk away, same with local shops and cafes.

We had a couple of strange housemates but this is the thing you will never know in advance. People can change quickly within a short time. As we are easy going people we didn't have any problems with them.

Lovely friendly neighbourhood, a small rural village with local cafes and a shop. A beautiful view of the Severn, stretching across to Wales and Portishead. A large park and village hall for the children and community use as well as a decent school and pre school. Wonderful place to bring up children or retire to, however I would advise seeking an altertletting agent/landlord.

Bit dodgy for Bristol. But not too bad, a homeless man may try to force his way past you into your own flat.
