We stayed here for 3 nights 21st to 24th May and could not fault anything with this guest house. Immaculately clean room at front of the house (room 3) was a great size with plenty of room. Brilliant location just minutes away from the lake and shops. Fab resturants also nearby, I would reccomend "Fat Olives". The Owners were really... More

great location close to lake, shops & bars. service was great, breakfast fantastic, room was hotel standard. only down side was the tiny television and no guest lounge, however since we didn't spend much time in the room neither was a big issue and i imagine resolving them could be expensive for the owners. will definately stay there again as...

We stayed here from 11-13th May to celebrate our 23rd wedding anniversary and had a wonderful weekend. The room was lovely, we had room 3, with the four poster bed and it was perfect and very clean. The little touches such as the dressing gown in the shower room and coffee and tea facilities with biscuits was lovely. The breakfast... More

We stayed for 1 night on 12 May and this was our second visit to this guest house. The owners are lovely people who make you feel very welcome, the rooms are immaculately clean, probably the cleanest I have ever seen, more so than any 4/5 star hotel i have stayed in. Breakfasts are lovely, cooked perfectly. Location is just... More

We stayed at Elim House 11-13 May. Judith and Steve are excellent hosts. We had the room on the top floor overlooking the beautiful garden. The room was immaculate (I have my own cleaning business, so I notice these things). Everything we needed was in the room, tea/coffe facilities along with shampoo etc. The breakfast was excellently cooked Would not... More

When we reached there, we were shocked to see the behavior of the owners as they said we only allow couples and no group of boys or girls and its mentioned on their website. And if we make noise we will be out of the hotel. You can imagine how one would feel if they hear this on the first... More

There are a large number of B & B's and hotels in this area who do not accept single sex parties of which we are one and it clearly states this on our website. This reservation was made via a third party website and it is the fault of this website and not us that this was not made clear... More

We stayed at Elim House for our spring break again this year, after trying it last year. Breakfast was excellent and made fresh on our arrival in the dining room (thankfully no keep warm buffets here!). The room was lovely, we asked for the same one as last year (room 3) which has been recently refurbished to a high standard.... More
