Lovely room, bathroom, & ante room. Very nice guest lounge. Beautifully decorated & furnished. Really enjoyed the evening wine tasting and superb breakfast with Jan & Grant. Highly recommend - we have stayed at B&Bs in a few countries and this is one of the best!

Was doing the otago rail trail. Stayed here two days in the middle of our journey. Great place and plenty to do. Learned lots of local knowledge. Wine tastings each night and the best breakfasts of our whole trip. Authentic and not to be missed.

We stayed with Jan and Grant at The Old Doctor's Residence for 2 nights and would definitely recommend it to anybody cycling the rail trail. The hospitality and warmth shown to us was just lovely after a "hard day on the trail". Jan's attention to detail and cooking skills are superb and to be commended. Relaxing and chatting in their...

Great hospitality, and a warm welcome at the end of a busy day. We had a lovely room with a spacious and well appointed bathroom. Great wine, conversation and some really yummy nibbles. Definitely, five star, but friendly and relaxed, with nothing a bother. Breakfast was amazing and we felt thoroughly spoilt throughout our stay. A great treat for us... More

Jan and Grant are superb hosts and the food and wine they provide are exceptional. They walk the very fine line between interaction with guests and providing privacy with great aplomb and are very generous with their time and energy. Jan was most helpful with researching my Naseby ancestors and Grant also helped making a phone call to local people... More
