What an opportunity to be able to spend the night in the home of a New Zealand DOC Ranger! Centrally located, our hosts are a short walk to Fox Glacier's town. Many restaurants and cafes from which to choose line the charming high street.. Our large and immaculate bedroom was beautifully presented and very comfortable . This included an en... More

Very well behaved pets (2 dogs and 1 cat). We even helped out with rugby related homework that the girls had. Oh and... More

We stayed for a couple of nights - this is more a 'home stay' than a B&B, which made it even nicer. The hosts, Jane & Gary are lovely and are able to help organise anything you need while visiting the area. Their knowledge of the local area is second to none, as Gary is a 4th generation Fox Glacier... More

Jane and Gary made us so welcome in their home which is within walking distance (2 minutes) of all the restaurants etc. in the village. You feel so relaxed. We agree with all the recent comments about a comfortable,clean room and ensuite, lovely daughters and very well behaved pets. They have excellent knowledge of the area and Jane's carrotcake is...

Jane and Garry are very friendly and make you very welcome. We had breakfast with their daughters and the dogs make a fuss of you or leave you alone as preferred. They have a very good knowledge of the area, making their advice very useful. More

My husband and I stayed at the White Fox for two evenings. The room and ensuite were spotless and the breakfast was tasty. The thing I loved about my experience was that I felt like I was visiting friends. Jane, Gary and their two little girls were a real pleasure to meet and get to know. Jane and Gary gave... More

I stayed in this B&B back in February 2009 and it was just great! The family is very welcoming. Jane and Gary gave me advices where to go, arranged a helicopter flight up to Fox Glacier (which was awesome!). The room is clean and very nice. Their daughters Meaghan and Isla were very nice too. If you like kids, they... More

Our hosts were actually away for a family event and in place were our hosts parents! They made us feel right at home as we arrived after a long day of sightseeing! They have one room available featuring a queen size bed in a very comfortable and spacious room! Lots of places to dine in the area, which is just... More

We were referred to the White Fox from another B&B in town. With only 1 bedroom (ensuite) for let, our stay was a wonderful immersion with the family! The bed was the most comfortable out of any I slept in in NZ, and the hostess so nice and welcoming. Quiet, clean, affordable, and a lovely stay. I will say, if... More
