This is a great place to stay en route to or from Christchurch. Trish and John made us very welcome and were happy to chat about life in NZ which was very interesting to us as tourists. We stayed in the tartan room, not en suite but with exclusive use of a very nice bathroom. It is lovely to have... More

I have never stayed at a B & B before, but have really enjoyed the experience and the hospitality from the host. The location is great, it was only a shot walk to the center shopping & restaurant area. Will definitely recommend my friends who are visiting Timaru :) thanks Trish & John! More

Impeccable B & B conveniently located to town. We have stayed in many B & B's and found the attention to detail second to none. Wonderful breakfast! Spotlessly clean and nice people too. More

This is our second stay with Trish and John and we were not disappointed. It was lovely, friendly welcoming hosts, a very loveable dog and a breakfast which made our daughter get up. Thank you both for a lovely time. We highly recommend this B&B More

My wife and I stayed at Sefton Homestay for 1 night on 17 January 2011. It is a lovely old home close to the centre of Timaru. We stayed in " The Tartan Suite " - with a king sized bed and small bay area ( ideal for using my laptop ) . The private bathroom with separate shower was... More
