Up on the hill overlooking Kaikoura, this is a great wee home stay / B&B. Friendly and warm hosts, and homegrown fruit with breakfast to boot! Cheers - definitely reccomended, and at only $75 a night if you're travelling solo, it's a great deal...

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with Margaret and her daughter Nikky. They were very warm and friendly and made us feel welcome. Guests had their own shared lounge, kitchen and bathroom.

We had a wonderful stay with Margaret and Nicky, it was like being with my own Grandmother. We felt very much at home and our room was very cosy. Breakfast was lovely, we won't forget those homegrown tomatoes -delicious! It was such a nice stay, we were sad to go!

We felt at home and the views from the house are stunning! Extras like laundry faciliies, and Margaret's lovely garden is a delight. Excellent value for money. Home made bread and produce for breakfast too!

I enjoyed a one-night stay in the Bay View and it was great. The breakfast was very filling. The fireplace was on when I walked in. I got a great night's sleep- no complaints and it was all for an affordable price.
