The court is close to the town centre and also within easy reach of Exmoor and Minehead. Taunton is a lively town with a range of attractions for residents to enjoy including the popular annual Flower Show, Christmas markets and a wealth of shops and galleries. The town offers plenty to do, with a variety of pubs, restaurants, cafés, social clubs, supermarkets, a cinema and bowling alley.

Clifford Ashman has a range of onsite facilities including a large lounge, quiet room, dining room, communal kitchen, two guest rooms, laundry, lift and car park. The court has extensive gardens with mature shrubs and a pleasant patio with seating where residents can enjoy the warmer weather. Green-fingered residents are welcome to get involved with tending areas of the gardens if they choose or grow their own flowers and vegetables.
