Most reviews above seem to have been written by holidayers. But living in Port Elliot is a bit different. During winter, shops close at 6pm, buses don't run and it is quiet and peaceful. During summer, schoolies festivals, new years holidays, easter and school holidays, living here can be trying, and frustrating. Roads are filled with city visitors, ignoring parking signs, speed limits and rubbish bins, parking on our lawn, blocking our driveway and leaving litter in the street. You suddenly can't get a meal at the pub, the shops run out of everything and the beach is littered. The council does good work during summertime cleaning up, and maintain parks very well (mostly) however, with out of towners coming to get married, have christmas parties etc on the parks, they are often selfishly reserved early and overloaded with marquees and tents, and we often head out of town with friends to barbeque elsewhere during peak times.
