Jenny as a host was amazing. She gave an introduction to her place and was reachable for any questions and provided valuable insights on things to do as a tourist. The animals on the farm are adorable and the garden is beautiful

An utterly charming, slightly idiosyncratic apartment in the heart of Victorian Oamaru. Extremely generous hosts (fresh beans and courgette from the garden) and well-supplied with everything necessary for a comfortable stay, including a delightful arrangement of fresh flowers to greet us. Couldn't have been lovelier!

Lakeside accommodation and its gardens were so comfortable, inviting, and serene. Very close to town. If we didn't have places to see, it would be easy to just stay all day.

The accomodation was lovely and the view was supburb. Everything that was provided met our needs for the stay. There are quite a few things to see in Oamaru and the hut is close enough and also far away enough to be removed and private with the bonus of the outdoor bath.

This backpackers was 100% the nicest place I’ve stayed in New Zealand. It was immaculately clean, beautifully furnished and welcoming. The lounge areas were warm, clean and cosy and it genuinely felt like a home away from home. This property is an absolute credit to the owners for the care and attention to detail they put into the place. I cannot recommend this accommodation highly enough. Thank you! Also loved the way the beds were made and the cute penguin theme ☺️

For a last minute booking when there was no accomodation left in Oamaru or Dunedin and the cost I wasn’t expecting much. My expectations were hugely exceeded, it was no problem for us to collect the key prior to check in time on our way though to Dunedin, the room was spotless (cleaner than some 5 star accommodation I’ve stayed in) and not dated. To top things off when we got back at 2:30am on a freezing cold night we found the heaters had been turned on in the room something so simple yet so thoughtful. Would 100% recommend!
