Join the International Muffin Meet Up!

Regent’s park, five minutes by bus from our Hostel, is one of the most magical places in London.

Regents Park

The beautiful green landscapes and the lovely ponds are the perfect frame for many beautiful days, and we love to get lost in this park, so peaceful and mysterious that it’s easy to forget to be in the very centre of a big, busy city!

So… what about a lovely summer day, a great bunch of old and new friends, beautiful music and one of the most amazing London’s parks? Sounds good, isn’t it?
And what if we also add loads of delicious food and the perfect excuse to wear amazing
Victorian dresses? Now, this is an extraordinary recipe for a great TEA-PARTY in London!

On the 2nd of August, Ashlee House will proudly host the participants of the International Muffin Meet Up!
Everything started from the music of the multi-talented artist Emilie Autumn. {Check her out on her official website!}

Dressed in lace, corsets, bustle skirts and blouses – clothes inspired by the Victorian era but re-invented with her unique style – this American performer is known for sewing her own clothes and being an amazing violin player and singer.
Her original style of music is often called ‘violindustrial’ because it’s a combination of industrial music and the electric violin.

Each of her concerts is an incredible show: music, burlesque dancing, aerial acts, fire hooping, stilt walking, ballet all gather together to create a fantastic and phantasmagorical atmosphere, able to involve and entertain the audience.
