This was the favorite B&B of our trip. It is a long 2.5 hour drive from the nearest cities, but the scenery is worth it. Dinner was included (there's nowhere to buy food nearby), and it was the best food we had in New Zealand: delicious meats and veggies. We walked for several hours along the rocky beach, right off...

Our small family spent 2 nights in the seabreeze cottage in April 2012. The cottage is private and comfortably appointed. Breakfasts and dinners held in the main house were delicious and a wonderful opportunity to meet the hosts and learn more about the area. Roger cooked the most delicious fish caught specially for us. Our toddler was quite taken by... More

We spent five days at Ngaio Bay in December 2011 and had a wonderful time. It was well worth the 2 hour drive from Picton through beautiful scenery. Jude and Roger are excellent hosts and made everyone feel at home instantly. Our accommodation was very comfortable with beautiful views from our window. It rained for a couple of days while... More

We (myself, husband, 4 year old daughter and 2 year old son) stayed here last November. It is a truly magical place. Our room was cosy rather than luxurious but this fitted with the wonderful feeling that rather than being at a B&B you are actually staying with friends. Roger and Jude were fantastic hosts, we greatly enjoyed meal times... More

A bit of a windy drive but well worth it. The views on the way in are fantastic, as are the views from the property itself.

Stayed here for 3 nights after a few weeks travelling and what a relaxing, welcoming and beautiful place to stay. Jude and Roger have created an island paradise within an island paradise. Their garden is a treasure, Jude's cooking is superb, and bathtime on the beach was the highlight of our trip! The road to it is long and winding;... More

This was probably the 5th time we've been back to visit Roger & Jude which probably speaks for itself. Each time we visit, we leave feeling totally pampered and relaxed. Our favourite is The Garden Cottage which is simple, but very comfortable, and the gentle lapping of the seashore serenades you as you drift off to sleep. Fire bath's on... More

Our stay at Ngaio Bay was the highlight of our trip. The location is hard to beat - a beautiful garden in a sheltered bay with a sandy beach overlooking Durville Island and French Pass. The views are stunning and there are walks along the shore and higher up. The accommodation is very comfortable and Sea Breeze in particular is... More

A beach at your own, charming hosts, wonderful food and an awesome view on the islands of Tasman bay - if you are looking for a place to forget the world, you couldn't find a better one.
