Noldo had the right idea: South facing smial on the top of a high bank overlooking a river. Secret exit out the back of the Smial into the forest (forest comes right up to the high riverbank, so the elves can come visit through the forest anytime.) Put a flet in the forest, not far from your secret attic-exit, and you've got it all covered.
