Oamaru Green Cottage

We loved the location, so close to the old township, walks to spot penguins. Lovely cottage with exceptional views. Very tidy.

great central location with view

couldnt find bike lockup

Fabulous view from the main window over the harbour. Easy walk into town and the penguins. Great facilities and warm cosy house.

Gemütliche Wohnung mit Meerblick, gut ausgestattete Küche, viel Platz.

You can’t beat the location and the view. We came to see the Penguins and we could walk there which was wonderful

Nothing

This is a lovely quirky cottage on the hill above the historic centre of Oamaru. There is on-street parking right outside. The kitchen/dining area was well stocked and clean with a 2 seater sofa opposite the picture window with a super view over the garden and down to the coast. The bedrooms (twin & double) were comfy and quiet. The separate living room had plenty of seating and TV etc for entertainment. We enjoyed an al fresco breakfast on the small terrace above the garden by the back door and took advantage of the washing machine (and indoor airer) to keep on top of our laundry. The host, Lilly, has furnished the place with lovely artwork and lots of quaint touches and tried to think of everything you could possibly need to have a great stay. The cottage is a short walk (downhill) to the old part of Oamaru and the Botanic Gardens, in easy reach of the Steam Punk Museum and about 20 minutes walk from the Little Blue Penguins.

The heat pump was a little tricky to operate - probably down to our inexperience with such things.

Wir haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt, eine tolle Unterkunft!
