Elephant house is a great B&B to stay in if your heading for Westport. Right in the middle of the town and directly opposite the Mill Times hotel which does fantastic bar food (go here for dinner I highly recommend it ). Stayed here for a night with our 4 month old, found the couple that run it very pleasant... More

We stayed at the Elephant for 4 nights and loved it. It was quiet, there were king-size beds (a rarity in B&Bs) and, with the owner being the butcher in the shop next door, the breakfast was the best we had in our 2 weeks in Ireland. The place is only a few steps from all that Wesport has to... More

Great location in the heart of Westport a stones throw away from the pubs. Right opposite the mill times hotel. The room was the best value we could find in Westport for our weekend. The breakfast was great and they obviously put effort into it. Didn't find it a problem that the owner was not on site as per previous... More

A nice lady in Boffin Lodge suggested the Elephant Guesthouse when it was proving quite difficult to get a B+B in Wesport on New Year's Eve and we were not disappointed. It is in a very central location, but a room at the back meant a quiet and restful sleep. It is only open a year, so everything is spanking... More

A yearly biker event the first weekend in October along with the Westport Arts Festival had nearly every place booked up in town. The hotel where the bikers were staying suggested the Elephant Guest House. I gave it a try and sure enough they had a room available and at a very reasonable price. Very clean room and comfortable bed.... More

I arrived in Westport with no accommodation booked. Having been turned away from several B&Bs with no vacancies I rang the Elephant's bell and was surprised to see the butcher from two doors down come out of his shop to talk to me. Turns out this was Des and he also runs the B&B. He said he had a room... More
