The Space:
Jasmine Cottage showcases much of its original architecture from exposed sandy-coloured Cotswold stone to ancient beams and an inglenook fireplace. It features exquisite details, modern touches and is painted in beautiful tones from the Farrow & Ball range.
The cottage is ideal for couples, friends or families - enjoy an afternoon together on the sunny patio and light a BBQ and experience a unique cooking experience on the Kamodo ceramic BBQ. It comes complete with everything you need to start grilling, roasting, pizzas and smoking! Admire the established garden plants whilst the children play in the outdoor playroom. Alternatively, snuggle up in front of the inglenook fireplace after dining on the rustic oak table; cook up a storm in the fabulously-equipped kitchen; or hunker down in the cosy lounge with its atmospheric log burner and a plethora of board games.
Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms - on the first floor admire the ensuite master bedroom with king-size bed, luxurious roll-top bath and natural stone tiles. Climb the 2nd staircase through a small doorway to the twin room with exposed beams and a picture window or sleep in the 3rd bedroom with a double bed and dressing table and travel cot.
With fast broadband and a built-in desk in the 3rd bedroom, it makes for a great remote working base too.

Really cosy rooms with log burners, comfy sofa and tv. Good kitchen with lots of nice equipment, friendly hosts who made us and the dog feel very welcome
We stayed two weeks in this delightful cottage in Upper Slaughter. The location is very good for exploring the area and is close to a first class range of restaurants and pubs.
Our host was very attentive and the accommodation most comfortable. We recommend a stay here

Thank you very much for your review Carol, we are really pleased you enjoyed your stay at Jasmine Cottage and we hope to welcome you to one of our homes again.
Perfectly located and charming Upper Slaughter cottage within walking distance to Lords of the Manor, Lower Slaughter and Bourton-on-the-Water. Clean, modern bathrooms and kitchen and a lovely garden out back for al fresco dining. We had three adults and one teen and there were plenty beds - twin beds are best for children. Appreciated the nespresso machine and pods, too.
Beautiful cottage in a quaint little village. Very helpful and friendly property owners. Stylishly decorated with everything you need for a great time. Perfect if you’d like to dine in Lords of the Manor. A (characterless) pub about 15 mins walk in upper slaughters and Clarksons brewery about 40 min walk. Great location to drive to all of the best places in the Cotswolds. Will definitely stay again.

We hope to see you again
All as great as the ad showed - a bit smaller than the photos make you believe…. But it really is cute and authentic! We really enjoyed our stay with the outdoor and indoor spaces being really welcoming. Quiet area in a beautiful village. What a memory for our family! Thank you.

Thank you for your review. We are really pleased you enjoyed your stay at Jasmine Cottage and we hope to welcoming you to one of your holiday homes again. ☺️
We had a lovely stay at the property. Upper Slaugher is a relatively quiet little village, with easy access to everything you want to see in the Cotswolds (and we have been many times). The house is lovely, has a really nice kitchen and dining area, and a comfortable living room where we enjoyed the wood-burning fireplace. A small point but worth mentioning: communication from the owners/managers was particularly good.
Only things to note is that there are a lot of uneven stairs, so it may be a bit harder for older guests or very small children. Access to two of the bedrooms requires caution to avoid bonking your heads (the rooms themselves are lovely). Also, a bit unusual: toiletries are not provided other than hand soap, so bring your own.
Overall, a nice bolthole and a great jumping off point to enjoy the area.

Hi there! My name is Kirsteen, and I’ve been living here in Cotswolds, for the last 20 years. I love home interiors and period properties, meeting new people and familiarising myself with other cultures. This is, essentially, why I’ve decided to become a full-time Airbnb host. I’m enthusiastic about outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, and even a little bit of surfing
Why they chose this property
We manage the property on behalf of Jamie and Tonia. Jasmine Cottage is a beautiful semi detached cottage, retaining many period features in the stunning Cotswold village if Upper Slaughter
