Luxury just outside of town.
Fresh and new, this B&B boasts extensive gardens and new build interiors. The bed is comfy, then bathroom is shiny and clean with a large shower, and our private patio was surrounded by roses in a beautiful English garden setting.

Countryside escape
Absolutely beautiful property in the countryside yet it was really close to the city too. The hosts were really helpful and had great ideas and up to date info about the city. The room was accessed through the garden and was spacious and very comfortable. I was particularly happy to make use of their Nespresso machine! It was really quiet when we visited so we can’t make comment on what it would be like if all the rooms were occupied. Really good value with lovely breakfast.

Very top quality lien etc.. and for the first time a property actually looks like the photos! So clean and comfortable with all the mod cons in a country setting. Was the perfect setting for a weekend getaway in peace and quiet. Hosts were very accommodating and helpful, all while also giving you your privacy. Would recommend 100 times over

Wonderful, relaxing stay
My boyfriend and I had an absolutely wonderful stay. The property was beautiful and serene, and the room was very clean and tastefully decorated. We felt an immediate sense of welcome and comfort, and we got a much needed reset during our long journey. The hosts, Lorraine and Gerald, as well as their sweet kitty Ollie, were friendly and even welcomed us into their home for breakfast. We would certainly stay again given the opportunity.

The cottages are set in a beautifully landscaped area with lovely trees and water feature. We loved the tranquility . Lorraine and Gerard have an artistic eye both for plants and interior decorating. Each room has a theme and the bed, bedding and all fittings are high quality. The bathrooms were excellent, great highest quality shower cabinet and good water pressure. Every morning Lorraine cooks delicious biscuits, muffins, croissants. The continental breakfast included several jars of the best muesli. Always lots of milk in fridge and high quality pod coffee machine. They are both real and very genuinely interested in all the people who stay with them. . We originally booked 3 nights then booked extra nights for our return journey. We have recommended this lovely place to our families. Thanks so much for a wonderful time.

This is an amazing bed and breakfast. Although it is very convenient to town it is off the main road and definitely has a rural feel. The property is amazing and the b & b part is brand new with every you need for a comfortable stay. Take a look at the 500 year old tree right outside the house. It's just magnificent. A lot of thought has obviously gone into the planning of this great little spot. Hosts Lorraine and Gerard couldn't be more kind and accommodating. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Best bed and breakfast
The bed and breakfast was lovely and peaceful. Our suite was beautiful, the bed extremely comfy and tranquil. The property is easy to find and peaceful. Gerald and Lorraine were fabulous hosts. Lorriane ensured we knew how to find their home, and showed us where all the amenities were located. She made us feel like part of her family, not just guests. Gerald shared with us tips for traveling around New Zealand, including the best places to stay, eat and the most scenic routes. They were the kindest people and I would definitely recommend staying at Glenbervie.

Ett måste!
Ett underbart ställe! Nytt, fräscht och med genomtänkt design. B&B-rummen ligger avskilt från värdparets boende, sittgrupp utanför skjutdörrarna i rummet... Väldigt trevligt värdpar och en gosig katt (utekatt). Det är värt att stanna några dagar, sitta ute och njuta av lugnet, åka in till stan för shopping och se olika sevärdheter i området. Rekommenderas varmt!
