We booked an apartment and could park right at the door. The room, dining-sitting area was large and beautifully appointed. The bathroom and bedroom were also modern and decorated in white. The apartment has a washer-dryer for your convenience.

This is a gem. Such an amazing history and he staff go out of their way to show off the property including the amazing chapel on site which is literally like being transported to Italy or France. And don’t start me on the beautiful chocolates made on site and provided in the rooms on arrival

What a find- beautiful property well furnished and equipped- spotlessly clean- beds very comfortable. Well positioned and beautiful view from the deck. We were only sorry that we could not stay longer and enjoy the ambience of this gorgeous property. The hand written welcome note was a nice touch. Next visit it will definitely be on our list.

Always love visiting Oamaru and have stayed several times.

Always love visiting Oamaru and have stayed several times. There is a wonderful range of stores in the town, something for everyone! We enjoyed a cocktail at The Lounge Bar, a good pub meal at Tje Last Post. I bought Christmas mince tarts from a the Harbour Street Bakery in the Victorian precinct … wished I bought more!

A discovery really, as it was the most convenient place for a break in our journey but what a wonderful central location it turned out to be to see many surrounding wonders. Each season would have its own reasons for spending time here, which is exactly what I now intend to do.

I liked exploring the river and would have fished if we had stayed. Food at the local pub was good, we didn't try the steaks. There are lots of families who go to Kurow camping for the water activities in the lakes. There is a newish wetland to explore, and others like to cycle the area. The penguins are 90 kilometers away there are a fossil attraction down the road.

It's a very special place to have crayfish and fresh fish at the Fish Wife. It's the only reason we travel and stay at Moeraki. Absolutely loving it. The Moeraki Tavern is also another fantastic place to eat. I highly recommend both.

How tidy people's property's. Super friendly people. Good food. Lovely works to the beach. Four square store well stocked, and easy to get around. Hampden pub was nice to eat and relax for the whole family. They have games for kids to play, pingpong, table tennis and fus ball. Will go back some day.

I loved everything about Waianakarua.

I loved everything about Waianakarua. The scenery, energy, the big spacious outdoor space was beyond me. The room I stayed in was dry, warm & safe. The owners were lovely and accomodating checking up daily on us. It’s a great stay of a spot for individual travel, couple travelling & also for families. The main kitchen & lounge area was gorgeous & comfortable & I will be back definitely.

It was my old home town many years ago, & has a lot to offer tourists, with the beautiful old limestone buildings. The historical part of town is well worth a browse with Steam Punk & much more to view & the little Yellow Eyed Penguins are a sight to see as well as the seal colony in the same area. Your also close to the great Waitaki river for fishing or boating & picnicing. For bikers theres plenty of scope to ride up the beautiful valley as far as Mt Cook. Plus the botanical gardens is a spectacular stroll for families. Jimmy the parrot lives their & has been around for many years and likes a chat, he will speak to you if your in his favour that day. The children's play area is a treat for a family visit or a picnic day out if you fancied. OAMARU IS A VERY SCENIC LITTLE TOWN.

I didn’t see much of Otematata as I arrived late afternoon, had a meal and then retired to my room. The next day we drove on to Geraldine early morning. The countryside is interesting, the views superb, I love the McKenzie country and I’ll return for longer next time. I ate at the Best little pub and had a very good meal
