Anita was very welcoming, as was the dog, Becky. We spent one night at Longview and enjoyed the stay. The gardens provided a lovely walk and were great to see outside our window. Anita cooked a delicious breakfast and couldn't have been a more gracious hostess. More

We enjoyed a farmstay for one night at Longview as part of a tour of new Zealand. Anita and Alan are wonderful hosts. We were able to relax, whether relaxing meant sitting on the patio and reading, taking a walk through the olive groves, or drinking a glass of wine with our traveling companions and hosts. The area is quiet... More

Driving down south from Blenheim to Wanaka Longview at Pleasant Point made the ideal stopover. We were delighted with our accommodation at Longview. A very warm welcome from the hosts with a welcoming cup of tea and cakes in the beautiful garden and we knew we had made the right choice. The house was spotlessly clean and the room spacious...

What a wonderful property,set in lovely gardens with an olive grove and the views are amazing. Anita and Alan made us feel like close friends and we loved the cooking. We have stayed in many places around the world but if I had to choose a place to live in, it would certainly be "Longview". The bedroom was so comfortable... More

This was the most fantastic B & B you could ever imagine. Anita and Alan were great hosts and we had a lovely room with brilliant views. Anita cooked us great breakfasts and we chatted over breakfast with an American couple who were staying there too. They have a lovely friendly dog and we were just welcomed into their home... More

Longview is a modern, well built house set amid olive groves and a lovely, extensive garden. The view of the four peaks is fabulous, our room was very comfortable and quiet, and the icing on the cake was the unexpectedly wide choice of cooked breakfast items - including my favourite eggs Benedict which were expertly prepared by our hostess Anita...

I stayed a night @ Longview last week (28/01/2011) & I am very happy that I found this little treasure. I have never stayed in B&B previously as I heard many stories about the standard of cleanliness (yeahhh I'm a little clean freak here). This was my very first time staying in B&B in my life and I am very... More

I booked one night at Longview for a stop over between Dunediun and Kaikoura. Anita was great and replied quickly to my request. The time spent there was one of the higlights of the South Island. The views and company were excellent! Longview is definately a hidden treasure that more people should consider. More

I could rave all day about Longview because we just loved it. Anita and Alan, our hosts, were funny, intelligent, informative, interesting but above all, welcoming. There's not enough space here to tell you how good it really is - to open the curtains in the morning and see the magnificent view really is breathtaking and then you get to... More
