A superb guest house with lovely hosts who really appreciate that couples like to have privacy on their breaks. The basket breakfast outside the bedroom door is ingenius and very tasty too! We'll certainly be returning and recommending it to our family and friends.

My husband and I spent 2 nights at Elford House for a family wedding weekend. Linda and Ged are very friendly and welcoming. Our room (no 10) was comfy and clean and had a lovely view over to the Abbey. We loved the idea of having breakfast delivered to our room and eating it at our leisure and enjoying the... More

My husband and I spent 3 nights in Elford Guest house last week. The room was lovely and the owners friendly. We had read reviews before booking and were aware that a continental style breakfast is left outside your room each morning. We normally would prefer to treat ourselves when away and book somewhere which includes a cooked breakfast, but... More

The breakfast being delivered to the room is a fantastic idea and more than enough to start the day off with and eaten while looking out from the breakfast bar to the abbey - fabulous. Room was spotlessly clean. A nice walk into the harbour (a... More
