not bad at all for the price. room was small, but clean and tidy. owner very friendly and helpful. some people complain about the noise but thats what you get for booking a b&b in the heart of the town on a weekend. personally I found it absolutely fine, and a great location to get home after my own drinking and exploring

Pros: It was clean and tidy.
Cons: Ventilation, possibly fan ducted to outside. Could be hot in summer.
Location: Reasonably large pedestrian area, usual types of shops. Some reasonable eating places nearby.
We stayed the night in Ashford in order to catch an early train to Brussels the next morning, so in preparing our trip I looked for lodgings near the station. Cornerstone is right in the central pedestrian area about 500m from the station, tucked away down a small accessway. We used the backdoor on arrival as that is where the SatNav led us to. Turned out we had to get a taxi in the morning because of the rain. 8 pounds taxi fare, including any booking / call out fee.
The room was small, hardly deserving to be called double, which always seems to be the case with this price range in UK. But it was probably the smallest we encountered on our trip.
Generally I thought it too costly for the accommodation level offered.
It was clean and tidy. The double bed was hard against our en suite wall and there was some small furniture. Not much room to move about.
No windows, only a roof skylight. I don't know what ventilation it had, but it did not get stuffy.
Landlady very pleasant and helpful. She prepared a breakfast tray for us as we left before the normal breakfast time, and booked the taxi.
Some strange plumbing in the en suite, but everything worked properly, and no odour problems.

A cosy relaxing break, in an unknown location
Posted 7 May 2013
Pros: clean, and cosy ---
Cons: nothing particular to say
Location: could not have been better.
My son Ivan, and I, felt very comfy and cosy, at the Cornerstone B&B. We felt very at home, and it was very nice to be in the centre of Ashford, with everything around us that we needed. We were there regarding house-hunting, so our location was ideal, for the agency, restaurants, and so on. The big breakfast in the morning was great, and really set us up for the day. Last time, we stayed at the Premier Inn North, but the Cornerstone was much nicer, from every point of view, and much better value for money. I would certainly stay there again, if necessary, or recommend it to others. I would not describe our stay as PLEASING, because that word is too bland. Nor would I describe it as superb, which is more suited to a 5 star hotel. I would say very cosy, welcoming, comfortable, and better than you can normally expect from a B&B. Carry on like this.
