A place with a difference! This historic church set in a peaceful rural town has been stylishly renovated into a 5 bedroom home featuring high ceilings, open plan living and starlink WIFI. A convenient 3 minute drive from Clutha and just 15 minutes from the Catlins scenic region, this location is a memorable stop over whilst you're in the Clutha district
Hi folks we're Matt & Brooke. In 2019 we chucked in our high stress jobs in Perth and shifted back to NZ with our young family to pursue a more family orientated lifestyle. Whilst on the search for a new home we stumbled across and fell in love with Lesmahagow. Coming from a customer service back ground it has always been Matt's dream to run a B&B and provide fantastic experiences for his clientele.
