"Highly recommended."
This is one of the best cottages we have stayed in. If you want to stay in a cozy cottage, that is well furnished & decorated, this is worth considering. Close to idyllic coastal & inland villages within 5 - 20 miles. A very friendly Pub with friendly Owners, staff & locals. Drink & Food highly recommended. Local shop (Farm Shop) minutes away in car or 10 minutes walking is a place to visit. You can have breakfast, lunch as well as stock up with local produce 10/10. Friendly neighbours either side. With warmer days coming, if not arrived, the garden ideal to sit out & enjoy a cuppa/beverage in a peaceful environment. Negatives, well not for us, but it doesn’t have a bath, the shower is very good. Some of the places we visited, Exeter 25 miles, Seaton 6.5 miles, Lyme Regis 7 miles, Charmouth 7.5 miles, Branscombe 8.5 miles & Beer 8.5 miles away – Google Maps directions. So many others. My wife & I really enjoyed this cottage & village. Our dog also gives it 10/10. Robert

"We enjoyed staying at Jasmine Cottage."
The owners have put a lot of thought into making it a comfortable base. It is located in a lovely village which is well positioned for lots of local seaside towns and is surrounded by stunning countryside.
The bed linen and towels were of superior quality and much appreciated. There was also a very nice welcome pack of goodies.
The cottage was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped.
The bathroom is very small and basic but the shower worked well and was hot.
Unfortunately the garden was not dog proof, our little Jack Russell slipped through the picket fence with ease into next door’s garden! The neighbours were very nice but had Guinea pigs which Betsy was anxious to get hold of! Consequently we couldn’t let her in the garden unless on her lead which was a shame.
The property did not have any logs or starter pack for the wood burner as advertised. This was disappointing as we had been looking forward to using this especially on a cool wet day.
Finally, the property is advertised as having a washing machine but there is no laundry basket, pegs or washing line!

"The cottage is well placed for trips around areas of Devon and Dorset."
It is very well equipped with all you could need and the welcome basket is a lovely addition and thoughtful touch. Parking is limited but you can park a few minutes walk away. Its hard to load and unload too as the road is very narrow so perhaps one to keep in mind if you will struggle with a walk carting your stuff. We managed it in a few trips but were certainly grateful it wasnt raining when we did

"Overall a comfortable stay at the lovely Jasmine Cottage."
Mainly well equipped, very comfortable beds and quality linens. Cleaner does a great job. We loved the little welcome hamper and everything supplied for our dog ( quality bowls, treats, towels ) A few niggles : Great shower although the shower area lets it down, a screen would be more efficient than a cubicle. 13.5 tog duvets in summer

"The Cottage is lovely, very clean and welcoming with some lovely homely extras."
The village setting is also great and just a few steps from a fab pub which served wonderful homecooked food.
The Cottage is advertised as suitable for 4 people but the bed settee in the main living room is only really suitable for 1 or 2 nights max as the mattress is thin and uncomfortable so for me it is more ideal for 3. Unfortunately the property had had a leak so the wall in the single bedroom was damp and flaking. The external repair had taken place but the internal decoration was still to be completed. This was not ideal for us as one of our party suffers from severe Asma and therefore could not use this room.
The back garden was enclosed and great for our dog. Prob worth noting you are very close to neighbours. This was not a problem for us but if you are looking for private garden or you have a noisy dog then this would not be fair on the neighbours.

"A beautiful cottage and a very comfortable stay in a lovely, quiet village."
Furnished with everything we could need, the welcome basket was a lovely touch. We were staying with our baby and were very impressed with the travel cot and high chair provided. The cottage is located close to lots of great places and attractions. We had a wonderful time and couldn't praise the hosts enough.

"Enjoyed our second stay at Jasmine cottage despite the weather."
Some good meals and beer at The New Inn, explored the Devon and Dorset coasts in wild and stormy conditions, and best of all, we've adopted a dog from Honiton Greyhound Rescue! Will be back

"Enjoyable week at the cottage, lots of work from the owners to give an excellent house and area booklet."
The location is great for visiting all along the Jurassic coast or great to be able to walk from the door staying off roads and you'll get a great welcome from the New Inn Pub with proper pub food. A place id like to return to thank you

"A fabulous stay."
Everything I could have thought of was provided. Perfect for two people to have a comfortable and quiet break. Near plenty of amenities. I was particularly impressed that all suggestions made by previous guests had been acted on. Tip for other guests - take a torch, the lanes are very dark after dusk if walking to the pub!

"We enjoyed our stay at Jasmine Cottage."
On arrival there was a welcome pack. Very thoughtful. The cottage was tastefully decorated. You could see that the owner has given this the necessary time and attention. The beds were neatly made with clean sheets. There were also plenty of clean sheets for the sofa bed. Furthermore there were lots of clean and new towels. The kitchen was fully equipped and everything was clean. The owner made a folder with what to do in the area. In short, everything was there to relax in a typical English cottage. We had a very good stay at Jasmine Cottage and give a very big compliment to the owner.

"We had the most amazing week at Jasmine cottage."
Kayleigh and Josh were incredible hosts and went the extra mile making their guests feel welcome and at home. We were greeted with a very generous welcome pack which had everything you could need to get started from milk, bread, strawberries, butter and delicious brownies! They also went above and beyond for their furry guests and supplied food + water bowls, poo bags and treats for our dog which was so thoughtful.
The garden is lovely and perfect for basking in the afternoon sun after a day of exploring - we ate all our meals outside! The cottage is tastefully decorated and really felt like a home away from home. My only advice would be to not do what we did and order food online! The local farm shop (Millers) which is a short drive / walk down the road has everything you need and so much better than shopping at a supermarket. Highly recommend this cottage and could give high enough praise to the hosts!

"Beautiful property and very comfortable."
A thoughtful welcome pack was much appreciated.
The only thing missing for us was a full size wardrobe. Our clothes became bunched up due to lack if space and hanging height.
Otherwise it was perfect.

"We found Jasmine Cottage very comfortable and well equipped."
An ideal size for a couple or, like us, a family of three. We appreciated the thoughtful welcome pack of milk, butter and other goodies when we arrived. Parking is on road but we had no problem finding a spot within a few yards of the property. Kilmington is a nice quiet village which is an excellent base for exploring the area. Not on the coast but only a short drive from numerous beautiful beaches and surrounded by rolling countryside. There is an amazing farm shop nearby which sells pretty everything you might need during your stay. Highly recommended.

"Super little cottage in a great location."
Comfortable, clean and welcoming.
The only point we’d raise is that the shower was not particularly easy to use, it was quite tricky to arrange the delicate curtain into position, the water pressure was low and the temperature low.
Nonetheless we had a great break and used both the friendly village pubs and it was ideally located to visit the local area.
