Beautiful well appointed accommodation
We absolutely loved our stay in the Little Red School House. It was incredibly comfortable, gorgeous and had everything we could need. I particularly appreciated the folder with a history of the property, school house an surrounding area. Out stay was an absolute pleasure and we hope to return.

Real kiwi farm location. Still handy enough to town and tourist trails. Enjoyed the history of the house. Modern facilities added well. Relaxing time thank you. Hosts handy if we needed them.

Enjoyable
A great place to stay. We were made to feel welcome by Nic. We enjoyed meeting the animals and being rural. It is lovely to stay in the school house and you have everything you need. It is not far to Oamaru and surrounding areas such as bike trails and walks to see elephants rocks and other sites. We would come here again. Thank you for having us.

comforable and cosy
Nic's hospitality was great. The property is quaint and unique with the building carrying much local history evident in the pictures and items in the schoolhouse. The house is well equipped with everything we needed and the special mattress made the bed warm and comfortable. Views of the area are superb. Well worth the drive through pretty hilly countryside. Overall a lovely experience
