We had a very enjoyable 2 night stay at the Oamaru B & B. The room we stayed in was beautiful with plenty of nice light coming through the windows in the morning. The breakfasts were very enjoyable and Austin has the coffee down to an art. Austin and Jay couldn't have been more helpful in giving us information on... More

Jay and Austen were great hosts, very friendly and accommodating. We were greeted with a hot drink and home made biscuits. Was within walking distance to town, but very quiet. Great knowledge of Oamaru and surrounding district. Highly recommended.

We enjoyed Oamaru very much, with its remarkable Victorian heritage, its beautiful gardens its eminent writer and, of course, its penguins. Austin at Oamaru Creek B&B lent us his binoculars to help with the latter, which was thoughtful and helpful. On our second day (of two) he explained how to find the scenic coastal route to Moeraki and how to... More

The owners, Jay and Austin, were a delight and made us feel very welcome. This is a finely restored house with character and charm. Austin does a wonderful breakfast. Our particular room, Nappa, was a little cramped but it was fine for a single night stay.

We had a lovely big and light bedroom that was full of character at the back of the house overlooking the garden (Corrainder room). Austin and Jay were friendly, helpful and informative. The breakfast was yummy with fruit salad, homemade granola and their own eggs. Austin's coffee was excellent.

Jay and Austen offered wonderful hospitality at Oamaru Creek B&B. Our front room was spacious and comfortable. They kindly added a bed to accommodate our teenage daughter. Jay's breakfasts and Austen's coffees were a highlight. They were more than happy to share their knowledge and passion about their town. Highly recommended.

We stayed here for two nights in December 2011. Austin and Jay provide a very warm, welcoming atmosphere in their restored historical house – a splendid, lovely old building with plenty of space and a lovely garden. We were greeted with the offer of a cup of tea or coffee and some delicious home made cake. Our room – called... More

Oamaru Creek is a beautiful place to stay in Oamaru. Matching perfectly the atmosphere of the city, the house is an elegant old building, restored with a lot of taste. We really felt warm and comfortable there. Our room was huge and the bathroom very cozy. Jay and Austen feed us with a perfect breakfast and delicious coffee. They were... More
