Pen-y-bryn Lodge, Oamaru Nz

Loved the experience of staying in a beautiful building with history and stories to tell. Our hosts were fab and the food was absolutely amazing. We are a family of 4 with some dietary needs and this was really thought out by our hosts. The best dairy free pancakes, muffins and cookies we have ever tasted! Thank you James, James and James : Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 5

What an experience. Highly recommended. Had an awesome evening and wonderful dinner. Prawn and avocado beautifully presented and sweetcorn reduction that was similarly spiced and delicious. The main was duck with radicchio , sautéed potatoes (from their garden) and mushrooms with green beans. I would say it’s the best cooked du I I have had excellent and fantastic wines to match. The fig and pistachio frangipane tart with Tonia Bean ice cream was also amazing and well rounded off with a home made walnut liqueur. Overall fantastic experience thanks so much!

Stunning . ...service...food... environment....an experience. !!! Needs more stars...

Fabulous place, people and food. Not a place but an experience!

This homestead is incredible. We stayed in a room called 'the nest '. Roomey, comfortable, large bed, deep bath. The food is outstanding!! Every course is AMAZING. Presented beautifully. A must to stay. Thanks to James+James
