An Ell refers to a wing of a building that extends at right angles to the main structure. Our Ell provides self-contained living accommodation adjacent to the main residence, offering you a cozy and private retreat. Originally built in 2005 surrounded by working farmland, and recently updated, The Ell offers a tranquil escape in a beautiful rural setting. You may occasionally spot us out and about, tending to the garden, but we are always respectful of your privacy. If you'd like to chat, don’t hesitate to catch our attention – we’re happy to help and make your stay even more enjoyable.


Located on the picturesque Ards Peninsula, The Ell offers easy access to the stunning beaches of the Irish Sea and the recreational activities on Strangford Lough.
While we recommend having a car during your stay to fully explore the area, we’ve had many guests enjoy their visit even without their own transport.
