Jasmine Cottage was warm, welcoming and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. There were however some issues that we reported to the Keswick office.

Lovely cottage in a perfect location.
We absolutely loved our stay at Jasmine Cottage. Portinscale has quickly become one of our favourite places, and we were so pleased to find this little gem. The cottage is beautiful, cosy and welcoming, with lovely views and everything we could possibly need for a relaxing stay. We felt completely at home from the moment we arrived and would love to return. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Fantastic cottage
We've just returned from a weeks' stay in Jasmine Cottage and would definitely recommend it. The property was spotlessly clean, comfortable and had everything you'd need for a break away. Based in Portinscale, it is quieter than some of the places we've stayed in, in Keswick and has the added bonus of a dedicated parking spot, right outside the front door. The only slight improvement we would suggest, is some net curtains over the downstairs windows, as people do wander past the cottage at quite a close proximity. One thing we would highlight is that the stairs do have a tight bend on them, so some people with mobility issues may find them a little difficult to walk up.

Our stay in Jasmine cottage was superb and we loved our week in the Lake District. The cottage was perfectly located within walking distance of everything we needed, so we never had to use the car. This included hiking, running, going to the pub, shopping and even a trip to the cinema! The cafe next door is brilliant for food which is an added bonus ! Thank you for our stay.

Fantastic property, location and outstanding customer service from start to finish. Have stayed with Keswick Cottages for years in lots of their properties and wouldn’t go through anyone else now. Jasmine was such a lovely place. It’s small but has everything you need. Definitely looking to book there again later in the year 👍🏻
