    Annette was a wonderful host. She more than met our expectations, and we had wonderful conversations, both in the evening and over breakfast the next morning. She made us a delicious breakfast from eggs laid by her hens! Her location is just...

    Lovely warm welcome from the host. The bed was so comfy and the peaceful location made for a great night's sleep. Beautiful poached eggs on toast for breakfast too. I will definitely stay again next time I am in Gore - thank you.

201waimumu Homestay is 5 kilometres from the centre of Gore. It is a life style property where I raise young calves in the spring, have free range hens, and graze store lambs. 201waimumu Homestay is quiet, has a country outlook, and enjoys the best of fresh clean air and non-chlorinated water. The house is relatively new, has double glazed windows, is warm and comfortably heated in the cooler months. Ample parking and level ground access. Top rate security. For guests staying more than 2 nights laundry facilities are available. Lunch and evening meals are also available on request at given prices. Guests enjoy the simplicity of the homestay.
I have worked and lived in many countries as a teacher and aid worker. On returning to New Zealand I wanted to offer a level of hospitality that I had received in other countries and show the unique values that we Kiwis enjoy - friendship, peace, respect, love of our culture, to name but a few. I grew up on the land and it still draws me back to my early years. I am passionate about the way we care for people in our society and wish that all nations would enjoy the freedoms that our predecessors fought for. I hope my guests will enjoy their time at 201waimumu Homestay.
Gore is a small town with lots of local and national functions. In January there is the Crank Up weekend (old machinery, Edendale). the annual A&P show in early February, the Gold Guitars, the Moonshine Festival, the bi-annual Fieldays just down the road from 201waimumu, the fishing season at the Mataura River, the tulip open day on Labour Day, etc. Many fisher people from all over the world come here for the trout fishing season. The local Gallery features works of Money while the museum has an excellent display of the moonshiners. The Gore Library is modern, is very up-to-date, offers free wi-fi, and provides excellent service. Gore is the country capital of the Gold Guitars, is the sister city of Tamworth (Australia), and the capital of the brown trout. Gore has an excellent hospital, 2 medical centres, 2 high schools, 4 primary schools, a branch of the Southern Institute of Technology (SIT) as well as ESOL and Adult Literacy facilities. All the mainstream churches are present. Just 2 hours from Queenstown or Dunedin Gore is within easy access of airports, skiing, etc.
