Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travellers who prefer unfussy accommodation with a personal touch. They are usually family-run, and your host will provide local recommendations and optional meals. Often cheaper than regular hotels, guest houses can also feature a cosy living room and a garden.
Great location and very nice accommodation too. Super comfy bed with great shower. Good kitchen and provision of essentials. Didn't meet any staff so can't comment but good communication regarding getting in to the apartment. Very quiet and peaceful.
It was quaint, beautiful and very comfortable. The breakfast was lovely. The China ware was gorgeous and we sat and had tea from it on arrival. Close to town and walkable if wanted.
The host Jill was
Gorgeous and very friendly.
Highly recommend
Walking distance to shops, cafe and restaurant.
Lovely pretty period house .
We loved the room nice big space well decorated.
The bed very comfortable.
There are utensil and crockery insitu, nice comfortable seating and eating area. Outside seating and table.
Off street parking if needed just ask however a very quiet area.
There is an outside plug you can slow charge an EV or PHEV you will need your own cable for 3 pin socket ( need to arrange payment)
Jill and Alli were lovely hosts ,very helpful nothing was too much trouble.
All you could want: a hostess who brought home made muffins, great location in Owaka - really good for touring the Catlins; and a well equipped motel. It's an old style motel but all the better for that. Great value for money.
The location suited our needs and although on a main road was very quiet. Our room was very comfortable and clean. It is evident that the host has worked to provide for all our comforts.
lovely welcoming hostess, place was clean and we were given some homemade muffins as a welcome plus milk. great location right in Owaka, but very quiet at night.
