Elliminook is set in a romantic garden with a croquet lawn beside an old elm tree. Other trees include a huge Bunya Pine, which dominates the front lawn, Irish strawberries, Cedar Hoop Pine and Kurrajongs. Lavender, Agapanthus, roses and Lily of the Valley are in abundance and their colours and scents are to be found in all the rooms.

We have two delightful golden labrador dogs (Zara and Molly) and a cat named Belle (because she, too, is beautiful) who'll make you welcome.
