"Elmers Court has recently changed hands. I visited in April 2026 during a spell of beautiful weather which made everything seemeven more idyllic. The main house was undergoing major renovations. I was upgraded from a cheap room in the main house to an apartment close by. I stayed there for 2 nights. The apartment was functional but dated. The bathroom was good. General cleanliness was good. The restaurant in the main house was a building site when I arrived at midday and 100 percent clean and functional by the evening! The new renovations in it were of high quality and sympathetic to the style of the house. There were understandably very few guests. The staff were delightful and very helpful. They were visibly bubbling over with excitement! There is a well established health spa within the grounds that I didn't visit. Also an outdoor pool undergoing renovation, tennis courts and children's play areas all hidden in the grounds. Once they are all functioning it will be fantastic. This beautiful house was built in mid-1800s in the style of an Elizabethan manor. The grounds are absolutely stunning! Beautiful estate style parkland bordering onto the Lymington Estuary. My apartment had a back door leading to a small private patio opening onto grass and trees. The resort has had numerous apartments in the grounds for some years and now many more are being built. I strongly suspect that this resort will be much more expensive in the future, more than I'd be prepared to pay."

"Nice old property with much character. Background music could be lower volume or off. Meals and staff good. Really enjoyed the short stay."

"Always a pleasure to stay here, the staff are friendly and helpful and the rooms are lovely"

"Lovely hotel, staff were excellent and polite. Food was fantastic in the restaurant and good amount of choices for me to choose from being coeliac, breakfast had good options too. We used the pool which was pleasant. Overall a great stay and would recommend. "

"First of all the location is beautiful. When we arrived Tanya and the reception team were lovely. Room was very nice and spacious. Whilst we did have a problem with one member of staff at breakfast, Giorgio Hotel Manager quickly resolved and the rest of his team including José and Eduardo were great."

"Fabulous stay at the Crown and the dinner in the restaurant was great. Staff very helpful and great bedroom with a very comfy bed !! My only disappointment was the breakfast choice which was pretty poor. If you are vegetarian there is limited choice with no option to order anything else off a menu. Limited fruit, cheeses and no salad available. Very disappointed and didn’t eat here on our last morning. I would visit again as everything else was great !"

"Beutiful quiet place to relax staff are amazing would definately stay again cant wait till next stay"
