Absolutely first class.. A warm, friendly welcome awaited us on arrival from Matt we knew it would be perfect (we met Zoe later on) The location is superb quiet in Torrs Park - handy for a direct walk to town (about10 mins) or an amble around the coast walk to the Harbour. The hotel is spotlessly clean and welcoming. Safe... More

Needed something to fit around a visit to Lundy - plus a hotel with adequate on-site parking. A very friendly environment. Good quality room, comfy bed, efficient shower and quiet environment. Enjoyable breakfast. Free internet. Zoe was very helpful, suggesting options for walks to town via the Costal Footpath (very good), places to eat, and confirming car could be parked... More

We came to the Elmfield on honeymoon with our three month old baby in tow. They couldn't do enough for us and we lost count of the small touches that made a big difference. Perfect for young families - they understand the needs of those travelling with babies and did everything possible to give us the perfect break.

We went for a friend's wedding in Ilfracombe and stayed at The Elmfield. Very competitively priced. Owner was friendly and made us feel welcome. The room was spacious and clean. Very relaxed atmosphere. And importantly made a mean full english breakfast. Highly recommend it

This boutique hotel is well situated in quiet Torrs Park - handy for a direct walk to town (10 mins) or an amble around the coast walk to the Harbour. Our guest was very friendly and helpful and provides are very... More

Quality boutique hotel. Modern decor in a classic building. Owners / staff were very friendly. Excellent cooked english breakfast made to order. Honesty bar if you get back late and fancy a night cap. A short walk (10mins) back from centre of town after a night out, some of which is uphill, so may be better to get a taxi... More

The warm greeting that we received from the owners Zoe and Matt was a perfect start to a relaxing and fun weekend. Having been before, my young boys asked straight away to go to the games/play room on the ground floor which... More
