1920s Stay in Whanganui

The nearest airport is Whanganui Airport, 5 km from the guest house. This is an absolutely beautiful home, an incredible place to stay in a beautiful location. Stacey, our host was so attentive in messaging.before, and during our stay. The apartment is elegant, cosy and full of lovely touches. The pictures here on booking.con do not do justice to the wonderful decor and comfort of the place. The bed was extremely comfortable, our son slept on a put -up bed in the lounge, also very comfortable. We had everything we needed - fresh coffee, tea, utensils and equipment for breakfast. The bathroom was large, with an elegant free standing bath with shower. We stayed mid May, it was a little chilly out but lovely and warm inside with electric blankets on the bed and additional heaters available. There is a beautiful veranda overlooking the garden filled with fruits and trees and birds. Honestly I just wish we could have stayed longer!
