Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests find Elworthy Lodge clean and comfortable. However, a few reviews mention areas where cleanliness could be improved, such as the bathroom and the presence of flies. These seem to be isolated incidents rather than a common trend.
The lodge's location is frequently commended for its beautiful views and peaceful setting on a working farm. It is appreciated for its proximity to local attractions and the coast, although a car is necessary to access these areas.
Guests consistently report that the lodge is comfortable, with excellent bed and furniture comfort. The warm and cosy atmosphere, even during adverse weather, contributes to a relaxing stay.
The lodge is well-equipped with amenities for cooking and entertainment, including games and videos. Some guests suggest that additional crockery and cutlery would be beneficial. The presence of Wi-Fi and secure areas for pets are also positively noted.
While guests express gratitude for the warm welcome and personal touches, such as being greeted by the owners and the interaction with farm life, there is no specific mention of gifts. Therefore, it is not possible to score this category accurately.

The owners had thought of every need for our stay from board games & puzzles, kitchen appliances & utensils to fluffy duvets and towels. Our daughter enjoyed watching the animals being milk fed on the farm. We had such a lovely few days on Elworthy farm. Thank you.
