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 use of a sitting room with comfortable chairs, tea, coffee and delicious ginger biscuits, as well as books to read and free use of a computer with free unlimited internet access, a great plus for us keeping in touch with family in the UK. Flowers on the table at breakfast made us feel extra welcome. A lovely touch!
