Fantastic

Such a fabulous place to stay with the lovely staff and fabulous history of the hotel. Very tastefully renovated, comfortable room with own bathroom. We enjoyed a delicious meal at the restaurant and a drink in the bar lounge by the fire. A soak in the hot tub before bed was divine. Would absolutely recommend and would love to come back

10/10 Exceptional

Charming, cozy & comfortable.

We travelled NZ for 3 weeks and this was by far our favourite stay. Honestly, we could not fault it. From the cozy, homey room, to the beautiful garden outside - everything was so lovely. We booked it on a whim and didn’t have any expectations, but we will be booking here each time we come back.
