“St Elmo House makes the most of its prime Dartmouth setting, placing you right at the heart of town with shops and the waterfront just steps away. My exploration revealed well-appointed rooms, where thoughtful touches like fresh flowers and useful amenities such as a picnic bag and coffee machine are standard. The comfortable beds and the convenience of private outdoor space in some rooms add a welcome layer to a stay that feels both central and quietly private.”
