We stayed two nights in this grand and luxurious B&B, actually a big studio apartment with its L shaped room (40m2) and shower room (4m2). Everything ready on the table for continental breakfast and two eggs in a straw basket on the kitchen counter. The kitchen unit was fully equipped (even a cooking plate) and the cabinets fully of condiments.... More

We enjoyed 2 nights in this well above average B & B. Spotlessly clean with lovely crisp, high quality linen - everything you could wish for had been thought of including hotties for the cooler nights .The photo album with the history of the house was really interesting & they have certainly done a great transformation on the obviously well...

The room in this B&B was very luxurious and had good facilities. The views over the sea were beautiful and the hosts were very friendly. Breakfast was good, but not very special (only toast and muesli).

Coming from Lake Tekapo, we arrived rather late as we spent quite some time in Dunedin and Balclutha. We're welcomed by Joan and she walked us through how best to enjoy her lovely house and the Catlins. Gave lots of advice on places of must visits in Catlins and at which timing to best catch the wildlife at home. As... More

Outstanding location, only surpassed by the the beautifully presented accommodation. The hosts John and Joan are a credit to NZ. Concentrating on comfort and quality, they provide a holiday experience to be remembered, with a lovely touch of class. I would recommend this as the best B&B I have ever stayed in, and will be recommending to anyone going to... More

This charming B&B has full ocean views and a quiet location. The facilities are excellent and the owners cordial. The room has its own access, is spacious and well equipped. Adjoining is a private garden to relax in. Very good value.

This was our first stop on a two week tour of South Island during the Rugby World Cup. We arrived on a cold and rainy day and found this warm and comfortable oasis with stunning views. It was a great base for visiting the area and John and Joan were the perfect hosts, inviting us to watch one of the... More

A seaside oasis with everything! Spotless, well appointed, sensational views ( even when it is raining), and best of all - fantastic hosts. It was a pity that we didn't allow for extra night in our itinerary. Highly recommended for couples looking to "chill out".

2 nights at Molyneux House was just what we needed after a busy schedule travelling around the south island in NZ. Accommodation consists of defined bathroom, sleeping, eating, cooking and seating areas (the latter inside & out!!). The view from two large patio windows is breathtaking; overlooking the south pacific ocean. John and Joan our hosts are very friendly and... More

Molyneux House, a B&B, was an unexpected delight. It small but beautifully presented, with everything you'd want and a wonderful view. Huge windows look out from a cozy sitting area and you even have a little deck. The road is between you and the sea but you can barely see it and there's virtually no cars- it's so peaceful. The...
