Lewis Finney scored the Robins’ first to make it 1-1 midway through the first half but by the time Charlie Pitcher was on target with 14 minutrs to go, Ashford had scored another three and had the game won.
The defeat leaves James Westlake’s side 15th in the table. Next up is a visit to Herne Bay next Saturday.
