Superbly restored with lots of character giving you that proper cottage feel. Every was just perfect for us. The welcome package was a very pleasant surprise and made you feel special and valued. The communication was amazing and everything you thought you might need to know was already taken care off. The location was perfect for us as a family with a dog. Lovely walks to the pub and the meadow. The owners thought of everything and couldnât do enough for us and the communication was open and friendly making you fee like you was talking to an old friend. We will certainly be booking a return visit. We loved it.

When we arrived at the house it was so warm and cosy, very clean and had everything we needed. The log burner in the evenings was lovely and we enjoyed coming back to the house each day and curling up on the sofa or walking to the local pubs. Our two dogs loved the walk across the road and although the road could be busy inside the house we didnât notice it. Thank you to Liz for answering my couple of questions in quick time and a special thanks from the dogs for Friday. We would happily stay again at this beautiful house that has been renovated to a very high standard. We loved everything about our stay.

The communication from Liz was well timed and very helpful. Jasmine Cottage is beautiful, lovingly restored and no expense spared as to comfort and attention to detail. The road as described can be noisy but the comfort of the home helps make up for this. We will certainly be returning in the future.
