About this property

Warm, spacious and centrally located

Oamaru is a beautiful coastal town with it's own distinct character and attractions. With a ready supply of Oamaru Stone the early settlers built many beautiful buildings from the Oamaru stone with many of these buildings having luckily escape demolition in the years that followed. About the 1980s some began to see the beauty and historical value of these buildings and over time they were restored and the old buildings were slowly given a new life and varied purposes. This itself attracted wonderful artistic and artisan people who enhanced the buildings and the character of Oamaru. Next came steampunk further enhancing Oamaru character.

Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$30.00 per stay); Linen (Required, NZ$5.00 per person);

Lovely big house with character

In the end there were only two of us. But that was okay as our steampunk costumes had a whole bedroom to themselves! The house was spacious but the rooms warmed up very quickly with the efficient heaters. The house has a lovely, homely atmosphere and we really did feel like we were ‘coming home’ at the end of each day. Very convenient for town, too; we walked nearly everywhere. Would recommend and would definitely stay again.

Great house for a get together

We stayed here for a couple of days over the Jazz festival. It was a great location and the house was spacious enough to fit all 8 of us. We really enjoyed the house, it was very clean and well presented. The deck area and bbq was a great bonus. I would defiantly stay again some time

Large, comfy and close to everything you need

You can walk to the city centre, New World, a takeaway and if you're more into walking, to the blue penguin colony too! Only drawback is that it is along SH1, but because it's in the 50 zone, it's not that bad. And the house is really nice and spacious, with a nice garden too.

Five dancers down south

Homely, sunny, easy to warm, walking distance to town, beds comfy, showers great water pressure, oven cooks great roast dinners - we ran the rental car through the carwash and removed the tacky residue from the beautiful oak trees that line the street - it is SH1 and traffic constant - after a full day in glorious weather and healthy fresh air, sleep was not a problem - thanks Ngaire for sharing your lovely home - would highly recommend.

Warm and cosy with 4 generous bedrooms, ideal for large groups. Heating was great with the cold winter nights.
