- Full english breakfast with choices of mushrooms on toast or poached eggs on toast is available for an extra cost of $25 .

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The advertised location as being on the Otago Rail Trail was incorrect. In fact it was 17 km from the trail in a different town so we couldn’t even get there. Very disappointing.
