We recently had an 8 week trip to NZ staying at a mixture of motels,B&B's and hotels and our three nights at Havelock House were without doubt the best $ for $ value stay in the country. The house is situated in a quiet rural location, the room a facilities were perfect and the breakfasts were all you could want.... More

We stayed at the Havelock House B&B for 5 nights. It was very comfortable, clean, quiet, and convenient to the all the local sites, especially the nice town of Havelock North. Diana and Geoff are gracious hosts who work hard at maintaining the large house and grounds. We rented the Havelock Suite which was very spacious with a large clean... More

We were absolutely thrilled with this B & B. It was Art Deco Weekend and we could not find accommodation in Napier - so we stayed here instead. We were glad we did - Diana and Geoff were so hospitable and helpful and the Havelock House was like home from home. If we go back to New Zealand we will... More

My boyfriend and I (32 & 29) are travelling for a year on a tight budget, but decided to splash out for 3 days over Christmas as it was our first away from home. We did a lot of research in order to find somewhere homely and not some hotel with a lack of atmosphere. I really dont think we... More

What one does not expect but hopes for is a five star experience. We got this in spades at this wonderful BandB. Diana and Geoff were most welcoming from the get-go. Making reservations and suggestions that proved to be fabulous. In particular was a suggestion to have Robert take us on the most wonderful wine tour at a cost which... More

Diana and Jeff Arnold are very gracious hosts. The B&B rooms (bedrooms, lounge and eating area) combine to provide tremdous facilities. There is even a small common kitchen type area with dishes, small fridge, toaster, kettle and sink for washing up. The pool area is beautiful. We really enjoyed a swim one evening during our stay. Diana and Jeff provide... More
