Lilac Rose Boutique Bed and Breakfast

This is probably the nicest B&B we’ve stayed at and the service and hospitality was first class. Plus, their rates are very reasonable.

Six of us stayed for three nights. It was absolutely lovely. Authentic hosts, great cooks, soft bed, lovely garden, cute little doggies, spa, and close to heaps of restaurants. Couldn’t ask for a better few nights accommodation. When we go back we’ll stay again. 👍👌👏🙏

Hosts were lovely and the room had everything we needed for our one-night stay. Had a great dinner at an Indian restaurant within a few minutes walk that host recommended.

Lovely hosts, very comfortable bed and everything you could want available to use. Good breakfast too. Very quiet. No complaints from us

Pam & Denis gave us a warm welcome, bedroom was comfortable, & breakfast was lovely

My partner and I chose this place for 3 nights as the beginning portion of our NZ trip. SO glad we did! Pam & Dennis could not be any nicer. I knew as soon as we were greeted at the door that we were in good hands. They were both so friendly, calm and relaxed and that made us feel that way as well. We stayed in the attic room (watch your head! Angled roof) and the bed, pillows and overall vibe of the room were all top notch. There is a private (not shared with anyone else) bathroom adjacent to the room (you have a short walk down the hall to get to it) that was also lovely. Again, watch your head! Breakfast was delicious (I don't know where they get their bacon, but it was truly about the best I've ever had) and the setting for the meal was lovely. They know the area very well; feel free to ask for suggestions on what to do, where to eat, etc. Oh! Ralph! Did I mention him? Their AMAZINGLY friendly dog! SO SWEET! What a love! Everything was spotlessly clean, the house & yard are beautiful and there is plenty of street parking. NOTE: if you have trouble climbing stairs, stay in one of the main floor rooms. A great choice! You won't be disappointed!

A beautiful old home and the hosts were very friendly. Walking distance to restaurants, would highly recommend a stay here.

To start in this beautiful authentic accomodation was a great start on our journey in NZ. The hosts Pam and Denis give you all the information you will need for your adventure in the south and they prepare you a good breakfast in the morning.

Very welcoming and cozy. Enjoyed the pot of tea upon arrival and the lovely bathtub.
