We loved our stay here. Our room, although not that big, was very clean. Slightly unusual set up though with the rooms all off a long communal sitting area. An easy 10 minute walk into the centre of Te Anau where there is a good selection of places to eat, plus a large supermarket.

Shakespeare House B&B is a fabulous place to stay in Te Anau. The accommodation was comfortable, breakfast was great, and Nathan and Liz were friendly and helpful hosts. I have coeliac disease and they catered for me with a choice of gluten free cereals & bread for toast kept separately with a dedicated gluten free toaster that is not available for general use. Highly recommended.
