We only stayed for one night in the Garden when travelling south the Franz Josef. It is a reasonable and quiet B&B located on the main road into Hokitika and is a short 5-10 minute walk (depending on you pace) into the town centre with its shops and eating places. The accomodation was what you would expect fofrom an average... More

Love this great B&B and wonderful hosts David & Glenis & of course Toffee. They really made our stay wonderful. We had pretty bad weather during our 2 night stay, but somehow that didn't seem to matter. They even picked us up and dropped us off at the bus stop. When we arrived we were treated to home made cake... More

My husband and I recently spent time in New Zealand and spent one night at the Garden B & B in Hokitika. It was a very charming place with great hosts, who made us feel very much at home. The room was really good and the bed was very comfortable. If there was one suggestion that we would make is... More

After a long drive from Hokitika we were delighted to arrive at this beautiful B&B with it's welcoming hosts.

I very much appreciated the availability of fruit teas, and the... More

We needed a room for the night at short notice, no fuss, good advice on where to eat, and that's what we got, along with the opportunity (later) to play a recorder duet.

Stayed here for one night while traveling through the area. David and Glenis were very friendly. However, our experience was quite different from the reports of other reviewers so be prepared for a few surprises. Upon our arrival David stated that he accepts only cash for payment. Despite having my credit card information in advance, he stated that he does... More

David and Glenys have a delightful home and garden and it was a privilege to stay there. We had the double ground floor room near the spacious entrance hall. Very comfy bed and an ensuite. Spent a most interesting evening talking to David and Glenys. Breakfast was excellent, homemade bread (2 types but more on offer) and good coffee. If... More

If you are looking for a cosy place with a personal touch then this is the place for you. David is a wonderful host and is so helpful. He even gets up in the middle of the night to put another loaf in the breadmaker. The breakfast was probably the best we had in NZ.

We had a lovely queen-bedded room with en suite. David & Glennis were excellent hosts and David prepared a superb egg breakfast with delicious coffee.
