Reviews
We stayed at Jasmine cottage this August with my teenage children, husband and mum and had a lovely stay. The owner Lisa, lives next door and is friendly and helpful, she even came round to offer us a bigger cafetiere because there were 3 adults and was concerned we might need a bigger one, which was very kind. The property is very old but has a new kitchen recently fitted, new double glazing and new shower room. The kitchen was well equipped but if you plan to cook bring your own knives (as with every holiday let I've ever used the knives are blunt). The cottage is in a very quiet location so we got peaceful nights sleep which was lovely. It wasn't the most comfortable holiday let I've ever stayed in but it was not bad. There is WiFi available if you have BT open zone (I think it's called) otherwise you can pay BT for it but it's not cheap so depends how badly you want it, my husband just used his mobile data. The village itself only has a pub but Thirsk is only 10 min drive away and has everything you could need by way of supermarkets takeaways and restaurants. Thomas the bakers is in almost every town round there and do lovely food at really good prices. There are so many lovely places to visit we loved York, Whitby, Helmsley, Grassington and Knaresborough. If I was back in Yorkshire again I would definitely return to Jasmine cottage.
A group of four of us had a very nice stay in this old cottage. The owner (Lisa) lives next door and could not be more helpful (especially with providing freshly laid eggs from her chickens!). Close to the town of Thirsk. It was a bit tricky to find but an ideal location.
Having read very positive reviews on Sykes cottages website about this property, we had high hopes. Unfortunately we were disappointed with the general upkeep of the cottage. We were told it was over 200 years old but that doesn't excuse a dangerous oven (steam pothered out from the bottom of the door) a broken freezer door, a kettle full of linescale, dirty crockery, a broken sofa and copious amounts of mould and damp in one of the bedrooms. This mould was so significant that one of the party couldn't sleep due to irritation of allergies. We were advised to ventilate the property to reduce condensation but this didn't eradicate the mould which was hidden behind a bed and had not appeared overnight as the owner suggested! Wifi was not included and wasn't mentioned in any property description prior to booking. We have chosen to publish this review on trip advisor as we hope to alert future guests to the problems we encountered as Sykes cottages only published positive reviews about the property.
Jasmine Cottage is very cosy, with an extremely helpful owner. Conveniently situated for all the sites we visited in the Yorkshire area. Would highly recommend Jasmine cottage to anyone planning a stay in Yorkshire.
The cottage was wonderful, warm and welcoming. All things were catered for. Very warm and sincere welcome from the owner who was very very helpful and informative about places to visit and eat. We has an excellent holiday and will definitely go again.
