The Jasmine Cottage was marvelous and greatly helped transport us back in time to the birth town of our GGGGrandmother (1817). Loved the fireplace - which was very forgiving in terms of keeping it lit - great draft. We look forward to a return visit. Homeowner Response: Delighted that you had such a good time! Thank you Norman (A fellow genealogist!)Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 4/4

A superb cottage which was very clean and comfortable and extremely well equipped. It was so lovely to come back to this property each evening after collecting our daughter from University in Bath and be in such a pretty rural village. Jasmine cottage is also an ideal base for visiting lots of interesting places within an easy drive. We will certainly recommend this property.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

A lovely, quaint, and spotlessly clean cottage. Our children were thrilled to have their own bedroom, and it was nice to have a kitchen and laundry facilities. Steeple Ashton is a very friendly village and a great location to act as home base to tour the area. We loved the heated beds!Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children, age 55+, families with teenagers.

Jasmine Cottage is very comfortable and welcoming, and excellent value for money, we would highly recommend it. There was everything we could wish for to make our week's break one of the best we've had in the UK. The owner is extremely helpful and prompt with replying to our emails and kindly provided at the cottage a lot of leaflets and information on things to do and see in the area which was very thoughtful. Regarding nearby places to visit, Bratton Camp is a must - the views are breathtaking. Bradford on Avon is a lovely town and well worth a visit (The Saxon Church, The Tithe Barn and St Mary Tor should be on your itinerary). Corsham is a lovely town too. Avebury, West Kennet Long Barrow, Lacock, Silbury Hill, Woodhenge and Durrington Walls are all impressive places to see. Steeple Ashton itself is lovely to explore and has some fabulous walks. The Long's Arms public house does a couple of very delicious vegetarian dishes!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, pet owners, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

We loved our stay at Jasmine Cottage for these reasons. It met our expectations of a quiet and quaint village, which was fun to explore. St. Mary's church is a lovely jewel there. The pub was gourmet and delicious (not particularly cheap) but worth it. The pub was surprislingly busy and doesn't serve food every night, so do your homework and make reservations. The villagers very friendly and helpful. The village is PERFECTLY and centrally located to Bath, Cornwall, Wales, The Cotswolds and many treasures of Wiltshire including Avebury Stones, Stourhead Gardens, Lacock Village, Nunney Castle and Stonehenge. The cottage itself is comfortable, and very quiet from 11 to 7 at night - we slept great! Each bedroom has it's own vanity table with mirror and plugs, making it easy to share the one bathroom. Plenty of hot water! Kitchen was well stocked and easy to use. Norman was available and very helpful at answering our questions, including where to eat in the area. Be sure to bring in groceries as there is no place really close by to get anyting other than Trowbridge. (15 minute drive). We loved Jasmine Cottage and would absolutely stay there again.Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers.
Owner response: Thank You Donna! It was a pleasure to have your party as guests. From the pictures you sent, it is clear that you all had a very good time. Very best wishes Norman

Jasmine Cottage is the perfect place to stay in the center of your vacation to SouthWest England. It is clean and cheerful and well equipped. The local villagers are very friendly and helpful. Bath, Stonehenge, Wells and The Cotswalds are all within easy driving distance of the cottage. Steeple Ashton is gorgeous with its own amazing abbey! We will surely stay here again if we make it to this part of England in the future. Thanks to Norman for everything and helping us with dining and suggestions after we arrived!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 10/10

Having stayed at Jasmine Cottage in 2009 we were looking forward to visiting again in 2010. Our anticipation was rewarded by a spotless clean and tidy cottage, as it was the previous year. The standard of decor and facilities left nothing wanting, more comprehensive than other cottages we have rented especially the open log fire. A most recommendable cottage. It is always a delight to return to Wiltshire from ScotlandDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 11/11

Jasmine Cottage is just the most wonderful home away from home. Besides having every thing you need (diswasher, washing machine, dryer, TV, DVD etc) it has that gorgeous English quaintness of a centuries old building. The fire is so comforting you just feel instantly relaxed. The local shop has everything you need and the PUB serves out of this world food!!! We ate there six (6) of the seven (7) nights we stayed at Jasmine. It is so close to many tourist destinations. We did day trips as far away as Plymouth and Portsmouth and as close as Devizes and all ended beautifully by going home to Jasmine Cottage. We hope to go to the UK again next year and would stay no where else!! If you want to experience Village life then this is where you should stay. We had 3 generations- my husband and I (in our 50's) my Mum (75) and our daughter (26) and we all loved it.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 9/9

Jasmine Cottage was exactly as advertized and perfect for five of us; exactly what we needed. Landlord was very responsive. Location is central for great side trips in every direction. Local pub is as excellent as they say and the village store has everything you might think of. Steeple Ashton is quintessential England. We really loved our stay.Did you find this review helpful?

My mom and I had a wonderful stay at Jasmine Cottage in March 2010. We loved having room to spread out and to prepare some of our own meals. It truly felt like a home away from home! The fireplace was cozy, beds comfortable, washer and dryer very handy. Steeple Ashton is a wonderful village with very friendly people! We spent several hours in the "Village Shop" chatting with the locals, having tea, and stocking up on a few groceries. One of the locals even let us borrow his map of the area for a few days! We ate at the local pub which was very good as well as in Great Hinton at the "Linnet". We took day trips to Salisbury, Stonehenge, Avebury, and Bath. We had a wondeful time and were very glad we had found Jasmine Cottage! Would love to stay here again next time we travel to England!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 12/12
