“A Real Oasis in Oamaru”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 March 2012

We were very pleasantly surprised with the Oasis on Orwell which the Tourist Centre found for us. Liz and Dave Clare were excellent hosts and provided far more than one would expect from a B & B. The house is well appointed and well presented, and nothing was too much trouble for Liz and Dave ensuring every comfort was provided,... More

“A great find in Oamaru!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 February 2012

We would thoroughly recommend the Oasis on Orwell B&B - excellent hosts, warm comfortable bedrooms, wood panelled dining room and a grand sitting room with views over the town from a huge window seat! Delicious breakfasts (more than you can eat!) and we had great evening meals - homemade, and fish & chip take out another night. Liz & Dave... More

“Lovely B&B in Oamaru”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

A lovely B&B in Oamaru. The large house is absolutely beautifully appointed. We were planning to head straight back to town when we showed up, but instead had a lovely time drinking tea with a few chocolates provided by the hosts and reading in the living room. The hosts were gracious and kindly provided us with recommendations for drinking and... More

“Best B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 January 2012

This is the best B&B place we have stayed in. The hosts were gracious and welcoming and the house itself a jewel. We had a very comfortable night, an excellent traditional breakfast and were given heaps of information about Oamaru. Highly recommended!

“Delightful treat”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

We booked this b&b on the recommendation of another and we were not disappointed. The hosts Liz and Dave were incredibly welcoming to our family, bending over backwards to ensure we had a fantastic stay in Omarau. Liz even looked after our star wars obsessed 6 year old while we snuck off for a coffee. I would recommend this to... More

“Oasis of Oamaru”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 December 2011

We stumbled upon this newly opened B&B in Oamaru and absolutely loved it. Their place has beautiful garden at the back and spacious airy lounge. Our hosts, Liz and Dave, are warm and welcoming. They provided plenty of information about local attractions and yummy brekky! This place is truly an oasis in oamaru.
