“Helen made us feel right at home & spoilt with all the little extras that make a stay so special.”
+What a beautiful host. Helen goes out of her way to make your stay comfortable. She goes above & beyond any accomodation that we've had on our holiday. Continental breakfast, snacks, cheese, chocolate biscuits, fruit. All these thoughtful touches mean so much.& were very much appreciated. Beautiful large bathroom with a lovely big bathtub & shower & 2 bedrooms to choose from. Courtyard area.So spacious. Loved our stay here.

+The host tried to think and supply everything you might appreciate whilst staying at her emaculate property. From electric blankets to chocolate biscuits and fresh juice and fruit..adjusting the heating to meet your needs.
−Personally, I find it challenging driving up steep hills. Maybe it's my age being 70. I like easy access. But the view was worthwhile.

“Wonderful”
+If you travel to Oamaru, which we highly recommend, the best place to stay is "A stone's throw to Oamaru central" wonderful housing unit with a spectacular view and a lovely hostess. We were sorry we had to leave.
