Living in Ashwell is really like living in a family, so be a part of it

After being a year in halls of residence at my university, Ashwell House was a delightful experience!

To see that in a city as diverse as London, there is a place where you can be taken care of and treated as an individual is extremely comforting. Only in an environment where respect, order and simplicity reign can one find hard-working and yet joyful students, who wish to make the most of their university years to develop intellectually, spiritually and culturally, to become the all-round women our society desperately needs.
