Nothing too much trouble for staff. A serendipitous find of an idiosyncratic venue. We absolutely loved it after some of the soulless hotels we stayed in on our vacation. We stayed in one if the "cabins". Just great.

Back to Kumara

A one night stay on a roadie down the West Coast heading for the snow. We have stayed here before and frankly, wouldn't consider anywhere else. This time we had a miner's cottage (free upgrade!), it was warm and quirky which we love. Ate in the bar, a real kiwi pub experience and friendly locals. The area is very interesting

Victorian Suite in the BNZ bank building was fantastic. Loved sleeping the 4-poster bed and soaking in the slipper bath. Relaxing having our own lounge area. Enjoyed both evening meals we had across at the hotel.

Really liked the Victoria Suite. Si roomy and a very different experience to a boring hotel room. Loved the claw foot bath. Would have loved bath oils. The fresh milk for tea/coffee was a lovely touch. Will definitely recommend.

We pre booked a room and after booking in we decided we would like to upgrade. No problem. We upgraded to a minors cottage. What a fantastic room. Words alone cant explain the decadence and decor in the room. Only death will stop us staying again. Good meals that are reasonably priced. Absolutely loved the experiece in a country town.
