Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travelers who prefer laid-back accommodations with a personal touch. Usually family run, these hosts will provide local recommendations and even optional meals. Guest houses sometimes feature a cozy living room or a garden – and are still cheaper than most regular hotels.
We were travelling through Moeraki as part of a long road trip of the South Island, and this cute tiny stay appeared in the search. It's in a great location, has everything one would need, and best of all - there are two highland cows in a paddock right behind it. For some reason these became my favourite things on the NZ trip.
Such friendly welcoming hosts. This is a rural idyll. Great walks, birdsong and peaceful surroundings. The tiny home had everything you need for a simple break.
Was very excited to see what living in a tiny house would be like for the night as I want one myself! The hosts were super helpful! A really lovely location, the road wasn't a bother at all. Loved overlooking the farm and seeing the ponies and cows.
