If the design empire of Laura Ashley has a crown jewel, it just might be

Laura Ashley dreamed of creating intimate hotels filled with her designs.
But it wasn't until after her death in 1985 that her husband, Sir Bernard, and
their four children fulfilled that dream.
Keswick Hall is on the site of an old estate where Civil War soldiers once
sought shelter.
Son David Ashley provided our very personal tour.

DAVID ASHLEY: THIS IS THE FORMAL ENTRANCE HERE. AS YOU CAN SEE, IT'S A LOT
LARGER THAN YOU'D EXPECT FOR A HOTEL WITH ONLY 48 ROOMS.
And it's not just Laura Ashley designs that are showcased in this intensely
personal setting. These were her actual possessions.

There are other extraordinary features.

Each accented with antiques, and another hallmark of Keswick Hall: the
art.
DAVID: A LOT OF PEOPLE CONSIDER THIS TO BE THEIR MOST FAVORITE ROOM AND
FAVORITE SUITE IN THE WHOLE HOTEL. THIS IS PART OF THE SUITE, WHICH IS A DINING
ROOM.
It's 600-dollars a night. But you get a taste of the Ashley's
eccentricities when you view the lowest priced room the house...at 225-dollars.
THIS IS THE GREEN ROOM, THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE ROOMS IN THE WHOLE
HOTEL. CAN I SHOW YOU WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS ROOM BEST OF ALL? AND THE REASON
WHY THIS ROOM IS SO DIFFICULT TO SELL SOMETIMES IS BECAUSE (HE JUMPS UP) THAT
