Elsie
Arden Country House is 15 minutes outside of Dunedin City Centre but still has the quaintness of a rural setting. If you book with us you get the entire house to yourself so come and enjoy our unique space and hospitality for yourself.
I love meeting new people and seeing them enjoy our beautiful home.
We are close to beautiful beaches, the Orokonui bird sanctuary and all that Dunedin has to offer.
