Rosemary is a treasure. She made us so welcome. I wish we could have stayed more than one night. Her breakfast was perfect, all the amenities were clean and shiny and new. The house is old and charming with a sunny verandah overlooking the bay. The absolute best part of this B & B though was the bed. I felt... More

What a joy to spend two nights here during our last week in New Zealand. The room, the view, the gardenand the wonderful country kitchen filled with history and Rosemary's charm were a highlight of our trip.

We stayed for two nights and absolutely loved our stay here. Rosemary instantly made us feel at home and welcome, and was a wealth of knowledge about the local area. Breakfast was simple but delicious including homemade goodies such as cooked rhubarb. Central location with only a 5-10 minute walk into town. Clean bright rooms which share a bathroom.

I had the pleasure of staying with Rosemary at her B & B "Room with a View" for my last two nights in beautiful Akaroa. Her company is a delight and her accomodation is superb. Day and night a log fire warms the home and I slept in the most comfortable bed you could desire. The breakfast is amazing and... More
