Easy self walking tour around the old town with plenty of eating out/ shopping options in main street of town as well. Appears to be a safe quiet town in which to wander about day/evening. Friendly staff at Scott’s waterfront brewery offering excellent pizzas and selection of wines/beers.

Hampden is a great place to visit.

Hampden is a great place to visit. We love the Moeraki Boulders. The Moeraki Tavern is a must for Fish and Chips and the lamb shanks were to die for. Vanessa's Cafe was lovely for breakfast and has a great selection of pies and muffins and everything else. The Moeraki Cafe and Gift Shop has one of the best gift shops I've seen in New Zealand for neat and meaningful souvenirs.

We wanted to take a shorter loop from Dunedin via Oamaru Timaru and Lake Tekapo back to Oamaru and Dunedin. First time from Omarama, by Lake Benmore.route, so Kurow was a convenient overnight stop to get back to Dundein before midday. A good road all the way, but Kurow is not a destination.

I loved the remoteness of the Lavender Farm.

I loved the remoteness of the Lavender Farm. Take a good lot of supplies with you, everything you would need for yourself, apart from toiletries and tea/coffee and breakfast. You don’t want to be leaving the Dome once you arrive as it is too special an area, to miss out by going into Naseby for the evening, or elsewhere. Road is unmade so drive carefully.

Time and Hugh created the perfect atmosphere to relax. From comfy beds, all the amenities one could want, and a beautiful property, the stay felt comfortably luxurious. With thoughtful touches like fresh-baked bread and a lavender diffuser to scent the room, it felt as if the hosts really considered everything about our stay—and they did!

Our visit was short, but the old downtown area (Whitestone City) was a great place to explore. The nearby park was fun, and the penguins were also nearby. We stopped at several overlooks on our way to Ōamaru from Dunedin (lots of seals/sea lions!), and Elephant Rocks were just 30 minutes away.
