Stayed there 11th May 2013. Very friendly greeting from Landlady. Room 6 on top floor last one available but fine for us as booked last minute. Nice touches to place and all very clean. Breakfast was good. We will use again as great value for money.

3 friends in the top floor family room that was very tastefully renovated. Only downside was having to climb the 3 flights of stairs with luggage. Beds were very comfortable, shower pressure was excellent, even though ensuite was compact. Our host, Nisha, was most helpful and friendly. The breakfast was cooked fresh by Stan. It was a great way to... More

We stayed for one night visiting family. Very friendly couple run this charming hotel, and the breakfast was top notch. Location was great, with an easy 8 minute walk to the sea front. We'll definitely stay again in the summer! Highly recommended!

The owners were helpful and well informed about local facilities, restaurants and attractions. Be aware that Ocean road has many restaurants and can be quite noisy in the evening, that... More

Had a very friendly welcome at the Elmswood, the owner is quite a chatty lady and gave us a good run down of the best things to do in the area, which was nice. Generally the guest house in pretty unprepossessing, corridors and entrance are a bit cluttered up with household junk, so while clean enough, it was a bit... More

Stayed here for 5 weeks and couldn't fault it for the price. Always greeted with a smile and they bend over backwards to make you stay enjoyable. Lots to see and do in the local area. Great beach and things to do for couples or families. Lots of great places to eat for all budgets in the locality. For food... More

Stayed here several times throughout June, July, and August 2012. Out of the 6 Guesthouses I've stayed at in the area this is the best one. In fact I'd go as far as to say it was the best Guesthouse I've ever stayed in. Very good location on Ocean Road, within close proximity to the town centre, restaurants, and beach.... More
