About Us
Ashbysonline is a family run business, established in 1984 on a 1 1/2
acre site as a "real shop", it has been a reliable source of goods for the people living in and around
Kingsbridge, South Devon for over 20 years.
Nestling in the rolling hills of the rural South Hams of Devon, the market town
of Kingsbridge, which is Ashby ’s home, is within easy reach of both the spectacular
coastal region of Dartmouth and Salcombe as well as the wild and rugged national
treasure of Dartmoor. This environmental melting pot has had a strong and unique
influence on the retailing style and product base of Ashby’s.
Holding the privileged position of being a key retailer in the Kingsbridge area,
satisfying the varied needs of both the local villagers as well as the significant
number of Summer visitors, is centre to Ashby’s core. This retail experience has allowed Ashbys to develop expertise in the field of outdoor leisure with emphasis on watersports such as canoeing, kayaking, and surfing as well as activities such as caravaning and camping.
If you are looking for equipment to go camping or get on the water with a kayak or inflatable canoe, Ashbys is the place to visit. With the online specialism of watersports and the physical shop to back it up with help and customer service, Ashbys can give all your purchases peace of mind. With many happy customers supplied with tents, sleeping bags, paddles, pumps, boats, life jackets and free advice, the beach, estuary, river and sea have become a fun place to be.
Ashbysonline displays only a fraction of the products we do. With the power to tailor the stock held, its quality, quantity and price, free from
large company, head office type interference, Ashby’s has developed a unique
and inspiring shopping experience that makes this family run business so different
from the mass produced multiples which now dominate our high streets. To this end you will
find a natural emphasis on the supply of practical and healthy daily household goods
and provisions such as locally sourced food and drink as well as a major investment
in catering for the massive leisure market people from all walks of life now enjoy.
Ashby’s is hopefully closer to you as a customer and more sympathetic to your
individual needs.
