Kingsdown Manor B&B Timaru is a recently renovated bed and breakfast in Timaru, where guests can make the most of its seasonal outdoor swimming pool and garden. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The bed and breakfast features garden views and a picnic area. It's my favorite house we've ever lived in. I have to say it's dream house. The house is warm and beautifully furnished, the details of the decoration are well done, and the flowers also very beautiful. Male made a good breakfast, she is enthusiastic and tought us how to make bread. Highly recommend staying here! We'll stay here again if we come to New Zealand again.

Each unit is fitted with air conditioning, a private bathroom and a well-fitted kitchenette including a microwave, toaster, fridge and kitchenware. At the bed and breakfast, each unit comes with bed linen and towels. Excellent location! Great view from the deck towards the mountains with the llamas grazing in front. For breakfast there were cornflakes, homemade granola, milk, yoghurt and peaches. The granola was delicious! The room was spacious and had everything we needed. Added bonus were the train tracks running right next to the accommodation (if you enjoy trains, but if not don't worry, there's not a lot of trains per day so it won't get too noisy).
