We have 2x Queen rooms & 1x twin room and can take up to 7 people. Our policy at Westway Homestay Bed & Breakfast is to have only one booking at a time, which can include one room or all three so please call or email direct to discuss your options and what John & Wayne can offer you at Westway Homestay.
John & Wayne have a friendly and relaxing lifestyle and take great pleasure in sharing their local knowledge of the beautiful West Coast of New Zealand by creating an environment that visitors can enjoy.
An historic tunnel on the property dates from 1904 when New Zealand's first state-owned coalmine operated further up the valley. There are private places in the garden where you can appreciate nature and the tranquillity of Westway. After dark, John and Wayne enjoy taking guests to the old tunnel and ropeway cutting to see the glow worms.
