My wife and I booked Elim House for a 3 night holiday in the Lakes. Judith and Steve were very hospitable and welcoming. Our room had an en-suite and a very large comfy bed which was needed after walking miles every day! The addition of wi-fi was an unexpected bonus too. Breakfast each morning was superb and just what we... More

We lucked out with this B&B- Steve and Judith were excellent, caring hosts and did everything to ensure that the 5 of us (elderly lady included) had everything we could possibly want. Location is very central so no need to take the car out once you've parked it in their parking area (which is small, by the way, but fine).... More

Friendly welcoming owner. Large room with a 4 poster bed and an exquisite en-suite. Really nice location too. Loads of restaurants to eat in so you don't need to travel far for quailty food. The only thing you have to remember and take is a brolly, it rained non-stop but even that didn't spoil the view.

We have just spent 3 nights at Elim House and have no issues whatsoever. We arrived earlier than expected however our room was ready, and Steve showed us to it before showing me where to park the car. We had a room in the back building and had everything that we needed. No problems with hot water, and indeed Steve... More
