Situated on a 6-acre lifestyle property, Height of Dunedin Serviced Farm Stay offers a semi-serviced, 1-bedroom guesthouse. The sunny, detached cabin boasts farmlet views and is nestled below mature pine trees, with a well-appointed verandah and patio garden.

It was amazing. I wasn’t in such a nice place for a years. Location was ideal, on the edge of the town, so absolutely quiet, but still close enough to the town center. Cottage was lovely, nice and clean. And the host was really thoughtful. She left a sign with greetings in our native language. Which was very heartwarming. Also she left for us bottle of milk and package of home eggs. Thank you so much, if we’ll stop by in Dunedin again definitely we’ll come here.

A recently renovated holiday home located in Dunedin, Lavender Box features a garden. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is situated 1.9 km from Otago Museum.

The apartment is spacious and well appointed. It has some wonderful artworks and quirky touches in some of the pieces of furniture. An eclectic mix of genres that work well together and make this beautiful apartment a delight to stay in, with all the mod cons you would expect. It's on the main road, but the property was very quiet. The location was excellent for the bus into the centre of Dunedin as the stops both directions were virtually outside the apartment, and at $3 a trip, excellent value.

    Great suite. Plenty of space and so clean. It's been wonderfully restored. Everything you could want has been provided. The host has gone above and beyond to make your stay perfect. We will most definitely stay here again but I fear when other people discover this place, it will become booked up very quickly !

    The apartment is charmingly decorated and very pleasant to look at. The kitchen, the living room and the shower are very well equipped. And everything is very clean. The apartment is suitable for four people, but there is one closed room and the other bed is in the living room and not in a separate room. (The living room is very large and spacious)
