Room was clean on arrival but never cleaned during stay
Towels were never changed no breakfast provided more like a self catering room rather than a b and b

A lovely B B with central location. Beautiful sea front walk only 5min walk from property. Owner Nisha kind and welcoming. Will be staying here again on my next visit to South Shields.

Originally booked on another site that said breakfast was available but I cancelled due to finding a cheaper offer and I'm so glad I did as it turns out they do not supply breakfast so I was almost robbed. The stay was lovely bar the people staying upstairs that sounded like a herd of elephants and went to the toilet every 20 minutes till nearly 3am so all you could hear was bang, bang, bang, flush all night. I like that there is no curfew and we were able to have late night out Friday but we made the effort to be as quiet as possible unlike others staying there slamming doors and stomping up and down the stairs. Id likely stay again but maybe not on a weekend if I'm going to lose so much sleep

Immaculate property which was spotless inside.
As a woman travelling alone I felt safe, everything I needed was within walking distance plus parking is free outside the guest house. Great restaurants across the road.
My room was spotless tastefully decorated with everything I needed I slept so well I left later than intended. Would definitely recommend staying, I’ll definitely stay again.

Lovely B&B and friendly owners, although due to the current situation we didn't see much of them.
Exceptionally clean and comfortable, with a good shower (always a priority for us).
Good location for access to the town centre and sea front.
We would definitely stay again.

I was in room 2 which was a single room but it was clean, well maintained and exceptionally comfortable. It was airy given its size but the window came with a blackout blind. I would definitely stay here again. I didn't meet the owners but communication was excellent and they spoke to me on the telephone to ensure that everything was satisfactory.

Fab location - easy access to the beach (wonderful!) The ferry, and the high street. Lovely friendly hosts, and a comfy, quiet room. Just what i needed.

We really enjoyed our two night stay at the Elmswood. The rooms were very clean, freshly decorated and the furnishings were lovely. It was like staying at the Ritz. Nisha, the owner, was lovely, friendly and very welcoming. She even helped us with our suitcases and upgraded one of our rooms, which was great. It was like a home from home. Breakfast was really nice too. We will definitely be staying here again and highly recommend it. It’s the best guest house we’ve ever stayed in.

Nice and friendly host. Nice and clean hotel. Top floor, no elevator and a rather small room. Great home cooked breakfast - Full English. Over all nice.
1.5 / 5.0
Would have scored much more for this property has it not been for the fact the room was not serviced during our stay. I have only had to make my own bed once in any hotel I have stayed in and this was due to the fob being left at "do not disturb" by mistake. Very surprising and very disappointing.

Nice little B&B in a good location. Very clean, you don't see any staff until the breakfast time but collect your key from a box; details for which are sent to you the day before your check in.

Lovely small property, ideal for the beach or just visiting like in our case a friends birthday party in s Shields. Landlady a bubbly Sara Millican ! ...well thats a southerners viewpoint I suppose.
Clean and tidy, only issue was light bulb over the sink needed changing.
Will definitely use again if we are up that way.

It's a guest house that makes you feel home while away from home.
Remember, if you are arriving after 20:00 to tell them before hand so they leave you they keys in the outside safe.
