The resort itself is set in a beautiful, scenic location with a lovely lake, though it is quite far from surrounding towns and attractions. Unfortunately, our stay was let down by the condition of the room. The furniture felt outdated, the mattress was very uncomfortable, and the unit was not clean upon arrival. Compared to other places we’ve stayed, basic touches were completely missing—there was no welcome pack, no cleaning supplies, and no shower gel or amenities provided. While the surroundings are picturesque, the poor upkeep and lack of basic essentials made for a disappointing experience.

We had a wonderful time at Jasmine Cottage. The lodge was comfortable and clean, and there is lots to do around the local area. We are hoping to return next year.

FISHING CLOSE BYWe booked Jasmine Lodge for the fishing, so from that point of view, it was good. Hubby enjoyed many hours out by the lake and was delighted with the fish he caught - and put back again.However, the lodge itself is looking tired and in need of a thorough redecorate and refurbishment, but was very clean and had everything we needed. The village of Woolsery close by is lovely and has great shop - we didn't use the pub or fish & chip shop but hear they are both good. But, the roads in and out of the lodge park to reach either Woolsery or the main road are better suited for a 4x4 and it's easy to lose your bearings.
