Beware the golfers are noisy in the bar, there was a completion on when we arrived, they weren’t about in the evening. The restaurant was quite peaceful and the staff were lovely. Our evening meal was great and breakfast was good. We used this venue for an overnight stay prior to catching the ferry to Santander, it made for a very comfortable stay.
Professional friendly staff. Pool, steam room and sauna were beautiful. The grounds are amazing. I was unlucky with the guest in the neighbouring room who began loud conference calls at 9am meaning that I checked out early. Pity.
This was our second stay at Elfordleigh, set in beautiful grounds andvery convenient for plymouth yet you feel you are in the country. Food is lovely and plenty of it . Staff at Elfordleigh were very friendly and accommodating even letting us use new showers in the golf block after we checked out so we were refreshed fot the theatre show. Pool and spa area was also very good.Really enjoyed are stay and we will definitely be back
