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.
