Today, Ashby is a thriving and highly regarded community, perfectly positioned on the north side of the A42 dual carriageway. The town offers superb connectivity, with swift links south-west via the M42 to Birmingham and Birmingham International Airport, and north-east to the M1 corridor, providing access to East Midlands cities and Nottingham East Midlands Airport at Castle Donington.
Ashby itself combines rich heritage with excellent amenities, boasting a bustling high street with a mix of national retailers, independent shops, boutiques, and coffee houses, together with supermarkets including M&S Simply Food.

For leisure the surrounding National Forest provides countless opportunities for walking, cycling and outdoor pursuits.
