I booked a few days here following a stint on the Kepler Track. Unfortunately, I had to be evacuated from the trail after badly spraining my ankle. It is pretty rotten to be in alone in a foreign country and hurt, but Ray was amazingly helpful -- truly above and beyond when it came to making sure I had access... More

We stayed here the night before we took an overnight boat trip on Doubtful Sound (which is amazing, by the way). The facility has older but very nicer rooms with en suite facilities. There is a beautiful enclosed porch with an impressive cactus collection (we are from Arizona and even we were impressed). It was a great place to read... More

An excellent B&B with a good welcome from Ray, a comfortable room with good en suite. Ray gave us good detailed information about Milford Sound and the surrounding area. Margaret cooked us an excellent breakfast and also gave us tips of places to visit and "must do's". Close to town - ten minutes walk. Just a few minutes walk to... More

A lovely place to stay & Ray (the host) was absolutely charming, helpful & nothing was too much for him. His friendly nature made our stay even better. The rooms all have a name from Shakespeare's plays & are very comfortable. The breakfast was excellent. My sister & I enjoyed our stay & would return to the same venue. There... More

A good welcome from Margaret, comfortable spacious rooms. Excellent kiwi breakfast, cooked by Ray, served early to facilitate our trip to Milford Sound. Second days breakfast cooked by Margaret. Both Ray and Margaret were very helpful, suggesting places to eat and tracing a misplaced fleece. Excellent laundry facilities available. Thank you both for a great stay.

Stayed here three years running & each time was excellent. A family run business which is spotlessly clean & comfortable & nothing too much trouble. The breakfasts were the best we've ever had outside our own home. A fabulous selection of cereals, fruit, spreads, etc to help ourselves to plus a great cooked breakfast with a lovely touch of edible... More

Ray, our host, puts a lot of effort into running this B & B. He booked us a trip to Milford Sound with a local company that proved to be excellent. Our early start for this trip meant the more than adequate breakfast Ray cooked was much appreciated. Our room was clean if a little on the small side &... More
