We stayed in the Sea View Apartment on the second floor. This place was beautiful and very well equipped. It will likely rank up there with one of our favourite places to stay in New Zealand. I would highly recommend this place!!!

The house is so completely charming. What a wonderful cozy place to stay. Quiet. Relaxing. It reminded me of the place that Cameron Diaz stays in the movie The Holiday. And the foot poof was so good we're going to find out where to get one. Couldn't have had a better location. Easy walk to the old section of town and the farmer's market.

A wonderful location , so close to town yet so very private, tucked in out of the wind with amazing sunset views. My wife loved the outdoor bath under the stars . . Every thing was well thought out and we had everything we needed .We had spent our previous 5 nights in a “luxury” hotel in Dunedin but to us this was , though different, a great deal better . Even the bedding and pillows were better and the room size not that much different .A great place to stay . Gerald and Tricia
