The shepherds arms is NOT your run of the mill motel/hotel. The theme of yester-year is very well done; from the old fashion switches, to the leather couch, to the 4 poster bed. We found this very special. Location is great. Sure there is a little bit of road noise but having a spa bath makes all the drama and... More

This was a walk back in time. I love History and this place had it all. The rooms were delightfully decorated in keeping with the era of the pub. It was winter and the rooms were warm and inviting. The staff were great and the Meals were Tops. Highly recommend this. Excellent value for Money.

Stayed 2 nights at the Shepherds Arms as part of our stay on North Island. Picked this property as recommended in the Rough Guide to new Zealand. Accomodation was a good size and clean. The bathroom was small but functional. The decor is as you would expect of an older pub and essentially charming. We found the staff to be... More
