We stayed at Elsay May for 4 nights for our minimoon and had an absolutely fantastic experience. The lodge was wonderfully designed, with cute and quirky touches throughout. The hosts, Margaret and Malcolm, were incredibly friendly and provided excellent service. The hot tub offered breathtaking sea views of Ailsa Craig and Arran. The lodges were immaculate and well-equipped, with everything we needed for our stay. The breakfast and meal options were delicious and delivered straight to our door. Elsay May is also very pet-friendly, ensuring our furry friend had a great stay too. We highly recommend a visit to Elsay May for a memorable getaway.

Nothing it is perfect.

Impeccable lodge with attention to detail. Cozy furnishings, complimentary slippers and robes. Fully enclosed garden area for dogs. Provided milk, delicious meals, and breakfast. Extensive wood burning stove and relaxing hot tub.

The cabins exceeded our expectations with stunning views and a private hot tub. The hosts were attentive and accommodating, always meeting our requests promptly. The food offered was reasonably priced and delicious. The property provided everything we needed, including a designated seating area, dining area, kitchen. We appreciated the great dog-friendly amenities, such as a dog bed and treats, and the secure enclosed garden where our furry friend could roam freely.

There was nothing we could fault during our stay. Everything from the location to the quality finishes of the cabins was exceptional.

Just back from a mini break at Elsay May. Lovely time, lodges were great ideal location. So dog friendly, hosts Malcolm and Margaret were lovely and couldn’t do enough for us. BBQ pack and breakfasts delicious. Will definitely be back, thanks for a great time!!

Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

The lodge itself had a cozy and warm atmosphere, perfect for a windy day. Sitting by the log burning fire was a memorable experience. the breakfast was delicious and brought straight to our lodge, which was a nice convenience. We also appreciated the dog-friendly environment, as our furry friend had a great time.

The only drawback we experienced was the size of the shower towels. They were a bit smaller than we are used to, but it wasn't a major issue.

Exceptional hosts, warm and welcoming. Quick and easy check-in. Super clean accommodation with all necessary amenities. Breathtaking views of Clyde, Arran, and Ailsa Craig. Delicious breakfast and evening meals delivered on time. BBQ pack option was amazing. Margaret's carrot cake was sensational.

There was nothing I didn't like.

As a disabled guest, I was impressed with the accessibility of Elsay May Luxury Lodges.

Felt like a home away from home, no complaints at all.

The whole stay was fabulous! the hosts were warm, friendly, and welcoming. Checking in was quick and easy. the accommodation was super clean and had everything we needed. the location and setting were breathtaking, with stunning views across the Clyde to Arran and Ailsa Craig. the sunset was just magical. We ordered breakfast and evening meals, and the quality of the food was outstanding. the BBQ pack was a great idea. A chilled-out time in a quiet and peaceful area, with nice places to visit just a short drive away.

There is absolutely nothing to dislike. It was a great experience overall.

The attention to detail in the cabin was impressive, from the home-cooked meals to the beautiful decorations. Our dog loved the welcome pack and comfy bed. The hosts were accommodating and even provided meals when we couldn't go out. Cannot wait to return.

My partner and I recently stayed at Elsay May for a relaxing weekend getaway. The owners were incredibly friendly and respectful of our privacy. The lodges exceeded our expectations, with spacious and luxurious interiors that still felt cozy and comfortable. The views of Holy Isle were breathtaking, and we enjoyed spotting rabbits, birds, and even some friendly dogs during our walks. The food, delivered right to our door, was delicious, and the log burning fire added a nice touch. Plus, the hot tub was absolutely amazing. we left feeling rested, pampered, and extremely grateful for such a wonderful experience.

Would highly recommend this hotel.
