Jacobswell House Reviews

We have lots of lovely TripAdvisor and Google reviews from guests staying with us over the years. In November 2025 TripAdvisor decided not to advertise self-catering properties any longer and we are sad to say that we lost many of our wonderful reviews relating to specific properties when they updated their booking platform. The TripAdvisor and Google links given above refer to a mixture of our cottages, not necessarily the one you are looking at right now.

We hope that you can get a flavour of what our guests love about staying with us from the rest of the information on this page and we are delighted to have some fabulous reviews left in our individual cottage Guest Books which you can read below!
