Beautiful, quiet location with friendly hosts and a generous breakfast. The guest house is behind the host's house at enough distance that you have privacy. The spa tub was a nice bonus.

My stay at 49 Balgownie Estate was truly impressive. The facilities were spotless, spacious, and very well set up. A highlight was the board games, which made for such a fun time pass. It was excellent value for money, and I would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting beautiful Whanganui. My family especially loved the peaceful location and the gorgeous flowers surrounding the house. Sue was an outstanding host, providing thoughtful guidance and taking care of every little detail we needed for our stay. Fantastic work team—keep up the amazing service! Highly recommended.

The property was excellent. In a quiet location, nice views to watch sunset. Everything you could possibly need was thought about carefully, clean and wonderfully presented. And a great price. Shame we were only there for one night. Didn't get a chance to use the hot tub.

10/10 really doesn’t do this place justice. It’s absolutely perfect in every way. Alan and Lois really have found a slice of paradise. They are also the most wonderful people and fantastic hosts. You will not find better. This guest wing is extremely spacious , clean and comfortable. The beds are like clouds. Alan and Lois go above and beyond to ensure you’ll have everything you need. The breakfast is amazing and we could have chatted all day. Thank you for making our stay so lovely. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

The unit was very clean with very comfortable beds. It also exceeded our expectation as it included a spa bath which we weren't expecting so that was a pleasant surprise! For us, the location close to the central city was ideal and the staff were friendly.

Beautiful building, very clean, great location and friendly host. We only stayed one night unfortunately and would definitely return if in Whanganui again. We walked easily into town. In fact, we only used the car to get to the beach. I was a little uncertain about the shared bathroom arrangement but the facilities were spotless.
