Good cabins separated from other rooms which makes them nice and quiet. All facilities were clean and well maintained. Heater in the room quickly got the place toasty.

We stayed in a large room with a view of the sea. Very clean with a comfortable bed. The rooms are part of a converted church complex in the country. What stands out is the real B&B breakfast served to you in a dining room. The host is friendly and accommodating. There are good restaurants, about 10 minutes' drive in Timaru.

Loved everything about it. Having an entire home to ourselves was great. Felt very at home, welcome and comfortable. Short distance from the beach where we sat little blue penguins.
