What a fabulous place to stay. Welcoming hosts, excellent accommodation, a stunning outlook, and excellent breakfast.

Karen New Zealand

The stay was lovely, although a little distance outside of Dunedin, the short journey in is really nice and quick and easy. We found this a great base from which to explore Dunedin. Our hosts kindly made the garage available to store our bike gear so we could travel light on the days we were exploring. Breakfast every day was more than generous and very tasty.

Bob New Zealand

Ana is a wonderful host. Putting on a delightful breakfast spread every morning. Lovely water views.

Tracy New Zealand

Great location, convenient for the pub, restaurant and cafe and a lovely view across the bay. Really comfortable, peaceful room in a lovely old character home. Books and artwork everywhere made it a really homely, characterful stay and the hosts were charming and very helpful. Breakfast was exceptionally good! We were lucky enough to have the room on the top floor which was quiet and spacious with windows all round to make the most of the views and sun. I can't rate this lovely property highly enough.

Joanne New Zealand

The view was amazing and the owners very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was sumptuous!

David New Zealand

Location away from main city, private, scenic and exclusive accommodation, personal touches from hosts, awesome breakfasts, located close to Larnach Castle and albatross colony; comfortable bed, private lounge/tv room, complimentary beer

Malcolm New Zealand

Beautiful location. Lovely home. Great hosts and breakfast.

Lane New Zealand

Warm welcome, lovely bedroom view, comfy bed, delicious breakfast, helpful local recommendations

Michael New Zealand

Wonderful property with stunning views over the inlet and beautiful grounds that attract local birdlife. Very clean and comfortable with an amazing shower. Fabulous breakfast with a lovely fresh fruit salad amongst the choices. Ana and Richard were exemplary hosts

Julian United Kingdom

I like Anna, She was very kind and introduced us to many beautiful attractions. Every morning we ate the English breakfast prepared by Anna for us. We enjoyed the wonderful two days spent here. I want to say thank you!
