Offering a continental breakfast each morning, Kepplestone by the Sea - The Catlins is situated in New Haven in New Zealand's South Island. Free WiFi and free parking are provided.

It is just 100-metres' walk to the beach where sea lions and seals can be seen during the summer months. It is 5-minutes' drive to the Owaka golf course and 9-minutes' drive to Owaka, where you will find shops, cafes and restaurants.

Everything was perfect. The bed was comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies, including breakfast foods. The location couldn't be better - a five minute walk to the beach and an easy drive to surrounding attractions. It was so quiet and private.

    We found the location great for sightseeing the Catlins coastline. The accommodation was clean & tidy, a humble wee crib with all the basics. Our host was friendly & it was nice to have some breakfast basics included.
