My original 5 star review was left at the request of Michelle at Ashley Stone. I rented a property with them for just over a year. As soon as we decided to leave, (due to our landlord breaking contract and a number of other issues) my opinion of Ashley Stone has massively lowered for a few reason. One being that when we needed the referencing done, despite the fact that Michelle knew how important it was, she proceeded to take ages to complete it. Luckily, we pre-warned our new estate agents of how difficult Michelle and our landlord could be and we were able to get into our new property without the referencing. I wouldn't ever use Ashley stone again.
