" I absolutely loved the stay there, it is central to the islands shops. I adored taking a walk down to the beach and local cafes that are spread around near the shop. When we arrived at the house we were greeted warmly and everything was explained. The maps and leaflets about the cafes and attractions in the area are superb! The house was beyond clean and almost as if no one had lived there before. Truly a remarkable little spot that I am genuinely thinking of staying at again. "

" Thoroughly enjoyed our time on the island though locality more appealing to kids than to adults. St Elmos provided us with everything that we needed and was conveniently located for all our needs. Everyone enjoyed the Country Park. "

My family and I were here in the Uk from Australia for a family wedding and the standard of the accommodation was like home from home. I would recommend this property to anyone who wishes for a peaceful and comfortable stay. "

" We had a fantastic weekend at St Elmo - the accommodation was fantastic and excellent value for money. The location was fantastic - we had great walks along the sea front and just a lovely chilled out time. The Company Shed sold great fresh shellfish and local produce and the Art Cafe was great - read the papers and enjoy the local art whilst drinking great coffee and eating fabulous carrot cake. A thoroughly fantastic long weekend which we are planning to return to! "
