A great place to stay

Lovely pub with very helpful and attentive staff and nice food. Ideal base for a weekend break with my elderly father. A short walk down the driveway opposite brings you right on to Elmer beach which is peaceful and absolutely stunning.

Spoilt Rotten.

We absolutely love the Elmer. We have stayed before and as previously, we were treated wonderfully by everyone. It’s a dog friendly pub & all the team spoilt out dog rotten, and he enjoyed the stay more than us. The room is clean and functional but the food & especially the breakfast nothing short of magnificent. Fresh and local produce making for a delicious meal. Elmer is a beautiful village and the pub is at the heart of the village. The Elmer is a credit to the village. We will certainly be back.

This was a return visit to The Elmer - the staff are amazing, so friendly and helpful, they are the reason to stay here - nothing is too much trouble. We had a very enjoyable dinner and breakfast the following morning. The weather was very hot and a member of staff went out of her way to find us a second fan for the room. The beach is in walking distance we had a really lovely walk along the coast. We'd definitely recommend The Elmer and happily return again.
