Excellent Guest House in a lovely location. Me and my wife have recently spent five days there and can't recommend it highly enough. Spotlessly clean and very comfortable room, breakfast is perfect and the hosts Lyn and Liam are so friendly and likeable and help you as much as they can with information about the area and places to visit etc. We really enjoyed our stay there and had a brilliant time. Will certainly be visiting Grange Over Sands again and our first choice of accommodation will definitely be the Elton Guest House

Just had a 2 night Easter break here. I can't recommend this lovely guest house enough. The room was spacious, beautiful and spotless. The location is perfect, the breakfasts were without doubt, the nicest we've ever had, and were even given a glass of bucks fizz with Easter Sunday breakfast . Lyn couldn't do enough for us and was very helpful and knowledgeable about the local and surrounding areas.
She recommended two local restaurants for our evening dinners, both of which were absolutely fantastic (Thyme Out and The Estuary) and also highly recommended. We would most definitely stay here again. 5/5
