Guest Reviews
- Steve (10/5): It is like staying in a place out of country style magazine, simply fantastic!!. - The entire place is beautiful, spotlessly clean and just a pleasure to visit. The owners are super welcoming and fantastic to deal with. This is the nicest place we have stayed at in New Zealand. 100% recommend this place Nothing, everything was fantastic
- manfred (10/5): You cannot stay better - Everything, it was perfect. Our best stay in NZL so far. Nothing
- Tracie (10/5): The most lovely B&B, wonderful gardens and host! - The most lovely B&B, wonderful gardens and host!
- Cheryl (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful cottage, situated in a stunning garden. The cottage has a separate entrance, kitchen, bathroom and open plan bedroom/lounge and dining area, as well as veranda seating and a patio area. The spa pool was enjoyable to relax in at the end of a busy day. Breakfast is cooked to order and the fridge is well stocked with nibbles and drinks. This was a relaxing one night stop on my journey, and would make for a beautiful romantic getaway. The cottage is a short drive into town and is handy to the forgotten world highway (SH43) and the attractions on that route.
- Cathy (10/5): Bradley’s Garden has our vote for the best B&B ever. A beautiful relaxing stay and delicious food. - A beautiful garden location, with all possible luxury extras you could want.
The breakfast and welcoming platter were delicious.
- Jared (9/5): Superb - Lovely little cottage with great service, It was wet but the grounds still looked amazing
- Aida (10/5): Fantastic stay…and felt pampered and taken care of in the best possible way! - Beautiful, fantastic hospitality, extreme care of details, very comfortable and private…felt like a piece of paradise! Nothing!!!
- Matthew (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jane (10/5): Exceptional - A corner of paradise which was a privilege to visit. A stroll through the gardens was a treat at every turn; Melana was a perfect and most generous host and our stay was without want, beyond comfortable. Nothing not to like.
- Claude (10/5): Exceptional -
- Adele (10/5): Outstanding - Everything about our stay was amazing.
This is an exceptional property with a host to match.
Will definitely be back.
- April (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sarah (10/5): Exceptional - This place is incredible - the room and terrace are beautiful and the gardens are just stunning. There were so many unexpected extras and personal touches, a warm welcome and out of this world breakfast. It's tranquil and feels completely private and luxurious. I loved it. Nothing!
- Anja (10/5): It was just fantastic! -
- Barry (10/5): A night of self indulgence. Just perfect. - Everything. This was a return visit after an amazing experience last year. Cannot be improved. Nothing
- Robin (10/5): Exceptional hospitality and a hidden gem - Very friendly welcome, couldn't do more for you than they lay on as standard. The views from the veranda are stunning, and the gardens gorgeous.
- Lei (10/5): Highly recommended! Best stay ever! - Fantastic host! The place is 5 min from town, the room is spacious, has a beautiful garden, is very tranquil and great for unwinding. Host met us when we arrived and she had prepared a fantastic cheeseboard and welcome drinks. She walked us through everything and we got to pick our breakfast and she delivered delicious breakfast to our room at exactly the time we asked for, how good is that! We used the spa and it was great. Everything was excellent and well thought out to give us the best stay. We travel a bit and this is by far the best B&B we have stayed. Highly recommended! Wish we could stay longer.
- Noeline (10/5): Fabtabulous stay! - Our fully cooked breaky was delicious, definitely 5 star hotel rating except I think it was better! Loved the cheeseboard etc. The lemon pistachio slice was divine! These extra touches were amazing! Location was perfect & the view was stunning which was just outside the back door in amongst the beautiful gardens. It was lovely to sit out there and take in the beautiful view. Courtyard with sitting area, pool and spa was lovely but unfortunately we didn't get to swim or go in the spa, hopefully next time. Cottage was beautiful! Room was spacious, modern and beautiful. The bed was sooo comfortable. Top notch bedding and linen. Melana was the perfect host. thank you! Wish we could have stayed longer.
- Johan (9/5): Superb -
- Yanxi (9/5): Superb -
- Cathy (10/5): A wonderful place to stay, we will be back again! - Melana was a wonderful host! The hot breakfast options were excellent and arrived at the nominated time piping hot. Cold breakfast cereal options were in our kitchen, with fresh milk, yoghurt and orange juice in the fridge. The facilities were great, with stove and oven as well as a microwave so were able to self cater our evening meal. Also waiting in the fridge for us was a wonderful cheeseboard, complete with a glass of wine that was delivered to us after Melana had shown us around.
We enjoyed the hot tub on our first night. We had bathrobes to change into and towels were provided at the hot tub. The view from the back porch was stunning, we enjoyed listening to the birds getting ready for bed in the evening with a glass of wine. We arrived back in the dark one night and, although it was a short walk to the front door, some outside lighting would have been nice.

- Susan (10/5): Sumptuous in every way - Attention to detail was exquisite in every way. Melana has created a fabulous space, indoors and out, and you feel like you’ve arrived in paradise. Very comfy and cozy, with delightful gardens lovingly created over 28 years, a joy to wander and explore. The breakfast was spectacular with choices of French toast, eggs, bacon, etc., and presented with flair. The spa, the pool, the views and a delightful host who has thought of everything - couldn’t have asked for more!
