Jasmine Cottage

• "We arrived to a warm cosy, inviting cottage."

  A secluded spot with beautiful views out across Easby Abbey. The cottage had everything we needed. Fully equipped kitchen, good Wi-Fi & lots of towels! A family of 4 we all slept wonderfully in comfortable beds with crisp clean linen. A nice courtyard garden was useful for our pet dog. I did need to block off a few little areas due to my pet being particularly small (chihuahua) but otherwise safe and contained. Lovely hot shower, note, this is a wet room (no bath). Only recommendation would be some privacy glass or blinds in bathroom and upstairs hallway. It’s in no way over looked but does feel quite open in evenings when you need the lights on.

• "The cottage is in a lovely quiet area."

  Postives of the property are a comfortable, large sitting room, comfortable beds & nice views of the abbey. The property manager was very helpful when we had issues with the WiFi. Negatives of the property was that there was zero information about the property & of the area. No information re appliances, where to park, heating, bins etc. Kitchen small & little worktop space & not very well equipped in comparison to other cottages we have stayed in. Property needs investment as some carpets were badly stained, washing machine detergent dispenser was disgusting. We have stayed in many cottages with Sykes & don't think this property merits a 4 tick rating.

• "Amazing location but the directions to the cottage were inaccurate, the cottage was dirty."

  ..dirty kitchen, previous occupants dirty linen on the bed and a leaky shower (unable to shower for the duration of our stay). Very poor response to our concerns. So disappointing

• "The property wasn’t clean when we arrived with stains on the hall carpet, cobwebs on the light fittings and hair on the bathroom floor the bedroom dresser was dusty and the kitchen worktop was in need of a further clean."

  Upstairs there are iron shaped burns to the carpet on the landing and the single bedroom. There was a broken glass pushed to the back of the cupboard which I nearly cut myself on. There was no information pack for the property and it took a while to work out how the heating was controlled as there are redundant systems still attached to the walls. Whilst parked outside the cottage a neighbour told us we were in her parking spot and we had to move, this was not indicated anywhere but she was insistent that she had 2 parking spots one of which was directly outside the cottage. But by far our biggest problem was the bathroom! The window is at a low level and not made of obscured glass and was without a curtain or blind. This offered no privacy and made us very self conscious when using the toilet or shower as the bathroom looks out onto the neighbouring halls gardens. The bathroom also has no extractor fan and when the door is opened the escaping steam from the shower sets of the smoke alarms. The bathroom door sticks as the handle doesn’t open the latch fully. The electric fire can only be used in the sitting room by unplugging the signal booster for the tv. Which means you have to choose between the fire and watching television. Several of the doors don’t close properly as they have been repainted to the point where they stick. The garden was overgrown and this led us not to use it at all during our stay. We eventually decided to leave 2 days early which spoiled our only holiday this year There were other things that could have caused problems but it feels like to continue would be unnecessary given everything we have already listed.

  We arrived to a lovely bottle of prosecco which was an unexpected amazing touch. We met Anne who was a lovely lady, very helpful and friendly. We would highly recommend this cottage, Thank you for such a lovely stay

• "Please note- The information from Sykes gives the address as 4 Easby Mews, the cottage is 4 Easby Court, a different courtyard on the opposite side of the road, this needs to be changed on the listing."

  Jasmine Cottage is lovely old stone cottage in a pretty old shared courtyard - a truly wonderful setting! When we arrived, there were lovely welcome touches - Prosecco and glasses set out in the huge living room, and lots of tea and coffee and biscuit provisions. The location just outside Richmond is perfect, a mile or so stroll across an old iron bridge and a walk along a picturesque converted railway track and you are in the lovely old town of Richmond. Alternatively, a simple 5 minute drive from beautiful countryside gets you there. The cottage is spacious and very well decorated and furnished, with a large and elegant living room, and a well equipped kitchen, the bedrooms all have top quality duvets and bed linen. The king sized bed in the main bedroom is lovely and comfortable. Great bathroom and wet room. Private garden at the rear, with stunning views over Easby Abby from the upstairs of the cottage! We really enjoyed our stay, the location is perfect for exploring the Yorkshire Dales, or just spending time in Richmond, and the cottage was a real home from home.
