  1. Why can’t people get enough of the Millbrook Cast Iron Bath? (Ashbee)

    Product Showcase Bathroom Inspiration Customers bathrooms Advice Centre

    Millbrook roll top cast iron bath

    Every year we are overwhelmed by the popularity of the Millbrook cast iron bath. We know why we like it – after all, we spent a long time perfecting its design and manufacture. But we thought it would be a good idea to ask some of our customers why they love it so much. Here are their top five reasons:

    1. The classic shape.
    The Millbrook is what many people imagine when they think of the words ‘cast iron bath’. Mounted on elegant claw feet, and available with or without tap holes, it is the quintessential roll top bath.

    2. Make it yours.
    The Millbrook roll top bath gives you the flexibility to enhance the overall style of your bathroom. We prime, undercoat and finish the bath with a silk white topcoat. You then have the option to easily change the colour by applying a paint that’s suitable for wood and metal with a mini roller. You can achieve excellent results in a matter of minutes. To make life even easier, we can paint the bath for you in a Farrow and Ball colour of your choice.

  2. A bath with a view (Ashbee)

    Product Showcase Bathroom Inspiration Customers bathrooms Advice Centre

    When does a style become a trend? When it is so decadent it’s too good to resist! In the last few years we have seen the trend of stunning feature–baths move from the bathroom, via the bedroom to the great outdoors.
    As a bathroom specialist we enjoy seeing our hand-finished bath tubs in some spectacular settings. Here’s just a few of them.

    Who wouldn’t want to bathe in front of the fire?

    Back in the days before we had the luxury of indoor bathrooms and central heating, it was not unusual to see a tin bath placed in front of the fire. In those days it was a practical necessity and a real treat for the family to feel clean, once a week.

    Move forward 100 years and we mirror the experience in period homes and boutique hotels, not out of necessity, but out of the sheer luxury. Far nicer to have a toasty hot bath in front of a roaring fire with a view out of a large picture window, than cramped in a small bathroom with a view of the toilet.

  3. Bathed in starlight with an outdoor cast iron bath (Ashbee)

    Product Showcase Bathroom Inspiration Customers bathrooms Advice Centre

    outdoor-bathThere is something so gorgeously self indulgent about outdoor bathing. Seriously, what can compare to slipping into a beautifully fragranced cast iron bathtub on a warm evening, while a cool gentle breeze laps your wet skin and nature chirps and rustles around you?

    Choosing a bath for a luxury bathroom

    We all want bathing to be a glorious luxurious experience. So when it comes to designing a luxury bathroom a stylish bath is going to always be a focal point. Choosing the right bath is important. Consider it an investment in your health and well-being.

    In this article we point out the advantages and disadvantages of some of the more common bath shapes.

    Our customer Gillian Harmer sent us this photo of our Marseille Cyprium Copper Bath in her bedroom.  I thought we would post it on our blog this month as we are looking at the idea of putting baths in bedrooms.
