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. ##### Lisa Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### D 4 May 2025 Liked: Room comfort Disliked: Staff & service Awoken in early hours by people banging ion floor(s) followed by lots of shouting. Could have been a domestic or drunken argument but still spoiled nights sleep- went on for ages. ##### D Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### David 21 Jun 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service 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 ##### David Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Steven 26 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service 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 ##### Steven Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica 9 May 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Stayed in room 4 it was very clean and nicely decorated would definitely stay again ##### Jessica Stayed 2 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katie 5 Nov 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The room was great and the owns excellent will stay again ##### Katie Stayed 1 night in Nov 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marie 18 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### South Shields Gem Excellent stay at this, brilliant Guest House.

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. ##### CAROL Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Neil, Kenilworth 9 Oct 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Neil Stayed 1 night in Oct 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ROBERT 28 Aug 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Elmswood Excellent location, friendly, clean good value. ##### ROBERT Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janet 3 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place to stay Super clean, great location and such a warm welcome ##### Janet Stayed 8 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ruth 3 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Elmswood high Fab location - easy access to the beach (wonderful!)

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. ##### J Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 2 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 15 Jul 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Disappointed 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. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 8 Jul 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Room comfort Nice area but the shower was barely warm and the bed quite uncomfortable ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Holiday Inn Washington by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Washington.h8797.Hotel-Information) > > [Windsor Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Windsor-Hotel.h660807.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Gosforth Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Gosforth-Park.h536512.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Newcastle Jesmond by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Newcastle-Jesmond.h918765.Hotel-Information) > > [easyHotel Newcastle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-EasyHotel-Newcastle.h9106352.Hotel-Information) > > [Roomzzz Newcastle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Roomzzz-Newcastle.h13299474.Hotel-Information) > > [The Keelman and Big Lamp Brewery](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-The-Keelman-And-Big-Lamp-Brewery.h27772016.Hotel-Information) > > [Eslington Villa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Eslington-Villa.h2268140.Hotel-Information) > > [The Angel of Corbridge Limited](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-The-Angel-Of-Corbridge-Limited.h6676418.Hotel-Information) > > [Beamish Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Beamish-Park-Hotel.h1887676.Hotel-Information) > > [Great North Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Great-North-Hotel.h38282843.Hotel-Information) > > [5* Barn Conversion c/w hot tub, sauna, games room, 1/4 acre enclosed games](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-5-Barn-Conversion-Cw-Hot-Tub.h19501189.Hotel-Information) > > [The Vermont Hotel & Vermont Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-The-Vermont-Hotel.h3082.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Newcastle Quayside](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Jurys-Inn-Newcastle-Quayside.h4438872.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Sunderland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Sunderland.h13351478.Hotel-Information) > > [Michelangelos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Michelangelos.h41450571.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Newcastle George Washington Hotel Golf and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Mercure-Newcastle-George-Washington-Hotel-Golf-And-Spa.h3084588.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Newcastle by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Newcastle.h2676058.Hotel-Information) > > [Ramada Encore by Wyndham Newcastle-Gateshead](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Ramada-Encore-By-Wyndham-Newcastle-Gateshead.h4722938.Hotel-Information) > > [Metro Inns Newcastle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Metro-Inns-Newcastle.h22202376.Hotel-Information) > > [Copthorne Hotel Newcastle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Copthorne-Hotel-Newcastle.h523217.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Newcastle - Stephenson Quarter by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Newcastle-Stephenson-Quarter.h9610649.Hotel-Information) > > [The Grainger Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Grainger-Hotel.h2533742.Hotel-Information) > > [The Highfield Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-The-Highfield-Hotel.h3007227.Hotel-Information) > > [INNSiDE by Meliá Newcastle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-INNSIDE-By-Melia-Newcastle.h57872512.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Washington A1 Northbound](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Travelodge-Washington-A1-Northbound.h1101645.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Newcastle Gateshead](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Hilton-Newcastle-Gateshead.h1073085.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Express Newcastle Gateshead](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Hotel-Express-Newcastle-Gateshead.h33341994.Hotel-Information)
