Lots of outside space, we had sunshine and made use of the garden, it was a real sun trap ! Location is perfect, a two minute drive to Hope Cove and the local Pub, pizzeria and the ice-cream shop which sells other bits and bobs. Kerry is amazing and nothing is too much trouble. Would definitely recommend

Itâs in a perfect, quiet location, ideal for those who want peace and quiet or enjoy walking the many beautiful walks nearby. Hope Cove is, of course a wonderful location and there are plenty of excellent places to eat and drink so Jasperâs is a real find. Owner, Kerry, is brilliant - very friendly and responsive and the house has everything you could need for a wonderful break. Very highly recommended.
