Nothing, we really enjoyed our stay 😀

What a lovely little guest house, my daughter and I stayed for a couple of nights. She was really excited when we walked in the room, lots of attention to detail and nicely designed, she loved it. The room was very clean with a nice comfy bed. Although breakfast wasn't provided, it really wasn't a problem as there are plenty of places to eat close by. I'd highly recommend Cafe Ross for a fried breakfast, which is only a few minutes walk away from the guest house. Although it is self check-in and key collection we did bump into one of the owners Nisha, who was lovely and very helpful when we wanted to store our luggage after checking out. The guest house is in a great location, only a five minute walk from the metro station, if you're traveling in by train and a 10 minute walk down to the beachfront. If we visit South Shields again we would definitely stay at Elmswood again.

Nisha, the host went over and above of what was required. I arrived at Newcastle airport on the tail end of storm Babet and found the Metro system badly disrupted as a result. When the train eventually arrived the service terminated at Bede where there was no replacement bus service and all taxi telephone lines were permanently engaged. It was a dark and wet night 🥶and two fellow travellers ,who I met during the journey, and I were stranded. In desperation I phoned Nisha to enquire if she could think of any alternative modes of travel to get us to South Shields, well dear reader Nisha came and rescued us! When we eventually arrived at Elmswood Nisha ensured that I was warm enough and that I had everything I needed which indeed I had. My stay in Elmswood was thoroughly enjoyable and I loved my little, cosy room.

Nothing at all! Everything was great.

Beautiful guest house within a few minutes walk of the Pleasure Beach and seafront. The room was very pleasant, well-equipped, clean, and modern. Check-in was very easy with the lock box. I would stay again.

As above, no breakfast or means to make one.

.As its very difficult to find a B&B where breakfast is served, plus breakfast recommendations from host proved rather bleak (Morrisons) not value for money. However enjoyed stay, shame there's not access to a microwave, toaster..in perhaps a small kitchen area as it rained severely (most days) during my stay and had to venture out to for some thing to eat. I liked the location, and was a pleasant room. I'd certainly stay again. ® Recommended D

Lovely bnb near the town centre and beach Very clean and comfortable Parking right outside the property Relatively easy check in with key safe Bed comfortable. Plate and cutlery for use Very quiet Recommended Thanks

Nothing, can't fault the guest house and the hosts.

As soon as we walked in the guest house the beautiful smell hit us, as if we were walking in to a spa,. Our room was beautifully decorated and was immaculately clean, the high quality pillows and duvet were very comfortable as well as the mattress. We had room 3 so it was lovely to sit with a coffee in the bay window and people watch. The host was so friendly and helpful, she even carried my very heavy suitcase up two flights of stairs to our room.
