Brantome Villa was the second stop on our tour of New Zealand. It is a really lovely property with beautiful gardens. We stayed in the Queen Lakeview Suite, which was lovely. Valerie & Roger were great hosts, who provided us with some really good information on where to visit in and around Whangarei. If you are planning on visit to... More

Only 40 mins from the beautiful Bay of Islands ... Brantome is perfectly located. I'm so glad I chose this gorgeous place instead of staying nearer to the Bay .... The accom there looked a bit 'run of the mill' and also noisy. What I got instead was a taste of pure luxury ...I won't repeat what has already been... More

What an absolute delight this place was.

They do a wonderful job to ensure their guests' every needs are catered for. We would have loved... More

Having just got back from a fantastic night away at Brantome Villa I felt that I should write a few words to say how fantastic everything was. From the moment we got there we couldn't fault a single thing and have rarely stayed in a place where such attention to detail has been thought about. From somebody who runs a... More

The presentation is everything. For each details that you may think about are already well looked after. Clean toilet, comfort bedding, healthy and balanced breakfast, pleasent view and many storage space make all kinds of trip become so relaxed.
