Jacksons CafeBar & Guesthouse

Great location, extremely comfy bed, great separate seating area, fab breakfast included.

Ceilings very low on mezzanine level (to be expected but definitely resulted in a few banged heads!). Some furnishings/fittings are definitely past their best - eg worn and sagging sofa, cabinet drawers sticking, carpets in the hallway worn and dirty, light fittings in the communal areas hanging off the walls above your head, and shower seals needing replaced due to mould. Should all be quick fixes but combined it really affected our first impression.

We love Grasmere and have stayed at this venue previously. It is in a great location. The room is quirky, in a good way, with a spiral staircase leading up to a bedroom with a balcony. Breakfast was lovely, with plenty of choice and very tasty. The gentleman in the dining area was very welcoming in the mornings, and it was a great start to each day of our holiday.

We did feel that the accommodation wasn't as clean as the last time we stayed. In the bathroom there were used cotton wool pads in the bin, which hadn't been emptied, and used cotton wool pads were also in the storage unit. The bathroom also didn't have anything to pop in the bath, such as a little bit of bath foam. I'm sure the last time we stayed this was provided. In the rush of high season perhaps the bathroom had been forgotten about.

Breakfast was excellent

Our room was amazing, spotless with great attention to detail. The staff were friendly and very helpful especially helping with our very heavy luggage as we were on the third floor. Our breakfast was delicious compliments to the lovely friendly chef.
