The remoteness of the property is simply amazing. Being pretty much by yourself in such a beautiful environment, surrounded by sights and sounds of nature, yet only around 7 minutes drive from Akaroa town center. There are some private walkways on the property through prime and pristine New Zealand landscapes, and you can easily link up to the Curry Track of the Purple Peak Curry Reserve. Also, lots of care has been taken to build, run, and maintain the property in an environmentally conscious and sustainable manner. The large bed is utterly comfortable, continental breakfast is provided (toast, butter, jams, fruit, yogurt, cereal, milk) as well as a kettle along with tea and coffee, a toaster, and a microwave. The wonderful deck has, besides a table and chairs, also two deck chairs and a gas barbecue, and the views all the way down onto Akaroa Harbour are fantastic all day round, boasting fantastic sunsets with the silhouette of the western mountain ridge of the Banks Peninsula as your end-of-day view.

We had a very comfortable stay at this Airbnb. The room, though not large, was very cozy. The bed was soft, and we slept very well. The room was also very clean and warm. The host, Vicky, was extremely friendly and recommended a great place for dinner. We had a wonderful night and would love to come back again!

The place was beautifully designed and clean. It had everything we needed during our stay. A very good continental breakfast was provided. Only 7 mins drive to town for food, very convenient location. Rose gave us a farm tour after we arrived. She was such a cheerful person, and very patient to my kids. She has two very loving dogs and my kids loved them. We had a Wonderful stay! Would highly recommend this place to everyone.

We stayed for 2 nights with Michelle and Steve and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The B&B is a bit remote, but in a good location for trips to the elephant rocks or Oamaru. Steve and Michelle were great and generous hosts. They provided toys for our daughter to play with and were always available for a friendly chat without being intrusive. Michelle is a great cook, dinner and breakfast were both delicious.

What a great place to stay and not only for one night... I loved it. Jill is a super host and very helpful and friendly. Everything was super clean and well organised. The WiFi was working perfectly. I could check in earlier and use the whole down apartment for myself. I would stay there longer if I could... Thanks Jill for a perfect place!

Steve was our host. He was polite ,had a warm personality and very helpful as to what attractions to see and food outlets restaurants etc to be found locally. The cottage was within walking distance to the city centre, and was quite a quiet location.The continental breakfast was just fine for our needs. Steve even set breakfast out in our cottage for our early start the next day.

Great location opposite the beach. Our room was very clean and comfortable for our 2-night stay. The bathroom appeared to be renovated recently. Our hosts, Luke and Kylie, were very welcoming and helpful. The included continental breakfast was fresh and perfectly suitable for us as we are not big breakfast eaters. Our room, which was located facing the road, was very quiet. I'm not sure if the room at the back of the property would be a better option during busy times.

The cottage is full of charm, comfortable and private. Dark, quiet, rural surroundings. The kitchen is small but well appointed. The shower is amazing! It is a shower over tub, so would suit travelling with a small child.

Pete was a very friendly and welcoming host. Very quiet and scenic spot at the end of the Kaikoura penisula. Close to walkways and Seal colony. I didn't vist these on this occasion as I was tired and weather was cold and wet. But great location on a good day. Itr's an old homestead on a farm with a campsite as well.

Dalkieith Boutique Bed and Breakfast is absolutely unique. The house has been so sympathetically restored and furnished you feel every part of being in a unique historic setting. Entering through beautiful gardens you really feel you have been transported to somewhere very special. We arrived 2 up on a motorbike and our host could not have been more helpful about ensuring we were happy with security etc. and we were very well looked after. The arrangements for breakfast were excellent and worked well with all our travel plans.
