We arrived for a three night stay between Chrismas and New Year. The house itself is an 1865 built heritage home and from the moment you step through the front door you could imagine how the house was lived in its original state. The attention to period detail is outstanding. Each room has its own distintive flavour. The hosts Alan... More

Not knowing what to expect, apart from the reviews I had read, I booked us into Lisburn House for a 3 night stay during the Rugby World Cup. I'm sure that if the old Carisbrook ground had been used we would have had difficulty getting into Lisburn House. We were not disappointed at all. The rooms were excellent and clean... More

We were booked to stay at Hilltop B&B, but due to the sale of that premises, we were referred to Lisburn House. The tariff was significantly higher at Lisburn House, but they kindly accepted our booking for two nights... More

Hi, This B&B may be the loveliest place in New Zealand, but I'm afraid that my fiancee and I will never find out. We had confirmed bookings at Lisburn House for over a month and a half but, when the owners discovered there was a Rugby World Cup match on the weekend of our booking, they decided that they would...
