We had a very enjoyable stay in this lovely house. The room was clean, fresh and comfortable and we had our own private bathroom with a choice of bath or shower. We stayed with our young daughter and found the owners very pleasant and child friendly. Breakfast was a real pleasure, lots of choice, cooked to order and very generous... More

We booked very last minute so ended up where there was a room available at a reasonable price. Therefore, we didn't really know much about Elim Lodge before arriving. We were very pleasantly surprised. The location is fantastic, just a short walk from the lake and with some great shops, pubs and restaurants really near by. We would definitely recommend... More

We stayed in the Lakes for a dog walking weekend, and were pleasantly greeted by a lovely chap who helped us find walking tracks and dog friendly pubs before showing us to our room. The room itself was delightfully cute and very clean, we also had a seperate private bathroom. Breakfast was delicious and came in generous portions and set... More

After spending a lovely couple of days at this homely enivironment, myself and my partner were subjected to what can only be described as very unprofessional outburst from the owner (I.e RODGER) when departing we were confronted with a very verbal and intimidating manner when asked about payment, we had booked through booking.com and thought all payments were taken in...

This is one of those reviews where someone tries to leave without paying, and then takes it out on the host when asked for payment. What the reviewer totally fails to mention is that she accused us of being dishonest. The booking was an online one, and they had not read the deposit policy, as they had been helped by... More

Our first visit to Elim Lodge on Biskey Howe Road where we spent four nights, such long nights too, awaiting breakfast time and the "Cumberland" which is probably the best guest house breakfast we have ever enjoyed, actually the nights were very comfortable in the most pleasant and quiet en-suite room. Very clean and well stocked with tea and coffee... More

This is our third visit to Elim Lodge, this time for our "25th" wedding anniversary. The hosts are genuinely welcoming and even decorated our room, before we arrived, with balloons and banners (that my daughter had sent to them). It really is in a great location, very close to all the shops and the Lake. The rooms are nice and... More

Myself and my boyfriend stayed here in the double on suite for three nights. We arrived and was greeted in a very welcoming manner. Our room was really cosy, lovely little en suite, just what you needed. Tea and coffee making facilities available for your use.

Stayed for 4 nights. Very friendly & welcoming. Great fried eggs. You can tell a lot about the service when they take the care to fry an egg to perfection. We stayed in the room with a seperate bathroom. This did not cause any problems. It meant that we could spend more money in the town.
