This was our second B&B in New Zealand, outperforming the first, which we had found to be very good. The room was spacious and very well appointed, leading onto a quiet area outside. The bathroom had every modern convenience, evidently only recently fitted out. Our hosts, Kate and Roger, couldn't have made us more welcome, sharing their house for drinks,... More

Kate and Roger's welcome and hospitality was outstanding and second to none. Their home is in a wonderful setting and the room superb. Although we only stayed for two nights we regret that it could not have been longer. Their advice on local attractions lead to some really great experiences that we might otherwise have missed and we enjoyed their... More

The glasses of wine on the sun deck, & the evening when they took us to the Italian restaurant were great fun, & they made us feel special. The room was lovely with a very comfortable bed, & in the mornings when... More

Kate & Roger immediately made us feel at home and perfectly achieved that difficult balance of attentiveness and allowing us space to relax. Nothing was too much trouble, the breakfasts were first class and their knowledge of the local area was extremely helpful. The accommodation is a very large room with it's own entrance and ensuite facilities, being very private... More

This was probably the most welcoming stay of our holiday. Kate and Roger are excellent, knowledgeable hosts and make their guests feel at home straight away. We, like another reviewer, were escorted by Sooty the cat to our room. It has a private area to sit, excellent furnishings and is very comfortable. Drinks and nibbles on the terrace, an excellent...
