+It was a lovely set up... . With everything you need. Of street parking... Set well back from the road. Idea for a couple or solo traveler.

“A great place with a Victorian decorations. Love those ceilings and wooden floors.”
+We love the place, specially having a cuppa at the veranda, very relaxing. The food in the fridge as a complimentary welcome was a very nice gesture from the host. We had a great time at Victoria Villa.

“Nice place to stay, easy to get to, and good value for money. Happy to recommend.”
+Off street parking and space out back for our bikes was a plus. A nice surprise to see the fridge stocked with extra goodies. Thank you! Enjoyed the Spa pool too and the small but private outdoor area. The bedroom was perfectly good for a 2 night stay.
−Nothing major at all. A little bit of confusion on arrival between the separate spaces i.e. the 'Villa' and the 'House' with no help from any signage as to where we were supposed to go. The options are quite different. Thought we had double booked for a moment. But all sorted by a phone call. Would have preferred two breakfast bowls, rather than just one. We had to take turns eating our cereal, but not a big problem, sure just an oversight. One of the gas cylinders in the portable stove had run out, but luckily the other side worked so we could cook after all. All very minor issues.

“Old house decorated in Victorian style”
+Location, although on main road truck noise dropped at night. Nice and roomy, had good heating. Extras in the fridge were a very nice touch. Bed was comfortable.
−No bathroom heater. Lack of clear check in instructions. It should be on the website. Note on front door was not at all clear. I had to go searching for a person. Had someone at the front door last night trying to check in with us.

“Highly recomnend”
+Very comfortable bed with electric blanket. Separate little lounge area to watch TV and relax. Lovely touch having the breakfast provisions in the fridge and some biscuits to have with our cup of tea. There was a hot tub and pizza oven outside too but we didnt use it as only stayed one night on our travels from Christchurch. Highly recommend this accomodation. Wish we could have stayed longer. Easy check in with a lock box
−Was raining when we arrived and we had to carry our bags over a large puddle to get to our accomodation

+The Victorian architecture, and furniture. The quietness and warmth. This was a very comfortable stay. Highly recommend this. And wow not only having a bedroom with bathroom but also a dining room and lounge with TV also.
−Only running water was in the bathroom. Was a little awkward cleaning dishes.
