When the elves and the hobbits sit down to eat it reads:
It doesn't seem to add up that their home is in Rivendell, because earlier Gildor says: "Some of our kinsfolk dwell still in peace in Rivendell." There we have, "our kinsfolk", not the group itself.
TThurston suggested that they could be from the Tower Hills, which I think is a good guess. Apparently they still have a home somewhere, even though they are "tarrying here a while, ere we return over the Great Sea."
Maybe they are out for one last journey east from the Tower Hills before turning back west? Does this make sense?
'This is poor fare,' they said to the hobbits; 'for we are lodging in the greenwood far from our halls. If you are ever a guest at our home, we will treat you bettter.'
