spacious, very clean and had everything one could possibly think of. Washing machine even. The host was very attentive and extremely helpful & friendly, and the house pet dog was also very welcoming and friendly. The gardens are an absolute delight and the efforts in organically growing their own herbs & vegetables are terrific. I would happily recommend this place to anyone looking for excellent service.

pillows getting close to use by date perhaps? bit too soft, but hardly a problem. Otherwise, can't fault the place.

Absolutely brilliant property , comfort plus. Room size was fabulous and our own balcony when we were able to eat. The guest lounge had fridge, microwave, jug for endless tea and coffee and refrigerating supplies. Very quiet and dark to ensure a great nights sleep. Set in a beautiful garden and easy driving distance to Greymouth. Host was very welcoming, breakfast superb and sent off with explicit driving directions to our next stop. Put Oak Lodge on your wish list.

All great.

It was so nice to be welcomed by Robin and his fluffy side-kick, Chico. Robin showed us around and explained the history of the building. The room we chose was set up just the way we like it and had everything we needed. Coming down in the morning into the magnificent dining room, we had a delicious breakfast and enjoyed the views of the distant hills and Robin's beautiful garden, complete with fantail birds flitting around and enjoying the sun. Robin recommended we visit Punakaiki (also known as Pancake Rocks). We did. It was one of the best decisions we made on our holiday and we are most grateful to Robin for recommending this amazing (in the true meaning of the word) site. Thank you, again, Robin, for your good advice and a memorable stay at your wonderful Oak Lodge. Driving over the bridge from main street Greymouth to Oak Lodge, also provided viewings of interesting geological features.

From our arrival to departure nothing was too much trouble We were upgraded to a beautiful bedroom with en suite facilities The lounge with balcony offered extra comfort The magazines were particularly welcome as were the books and leaflets plus complimentary tea , coffee and access to a microwave, kitchen facilities. The breakfast was all we could wish for and an evening stroll around the extensive gardens was just perfect ....

Breakfast was great, lots of fresh locally grown produce of which the host Robin was quite proud. The room was large and easy to keep warm. We had a balcony room with a view of the surrounding mountains and sheep grazing adjacent to the property. Robin gave us good tips on things to see.

Very minor only - not a complaint - but perhaps a few more power points could be added in the room, for convenience.

Robin is a gem and so is the lodge. We arrived late and were still made welcome. The house is fabulous, everything is in tip top condition, it's warm, spotless and spacious. Great linen and lots of great little touches such as chocolates by the bed, great quality toiletries etc. The breakfast was amazing. Robin helped us plan our next steps. This was our favourite stay in New Zealand. Thanks so much Robin.

The location was about 5 minutes away from Greymouth, and very close to Cobden. The Apartment we stayed in was beautifully well appointed with all you would expect for a stand-alone unit for a couple. The bathroom had a fantastic shower. The apartment was is good grounds, and still had access to a spa and a pool table that were inside the Lodge.

Warm and beautiful bed and breakfast in a peaceful setting just minutes from heart of Greymouth. Owner is so welcoming and kind, Breakfasts are amazing while looking out over the garden full of birds. Golden retriever Chico greeted my kids and made them feel at home. Lodge has everything you need, with nice extras like the pool table, log fire in living room, guest kitchenette and TV room, and walking trails around Garden.

Nothing

A quiet and peaceful setting only a short drive out of town. The Studio Unit has everything you need for a pleasant stay and the outside deck is a nice area to relax in a rural setting. The friendly Golden Retriever was a bonus.

Had to be careful standing up from the table in the corner because of the tv shelf directly above it - had a couple of near misses.

The large one-bedroom apartment is very comfortable, well appointed, and very quiet. The location is just a few minutes from the Greymouth train station, so very convenient if you're taking the Tranzalpine Express. Pancake Rocks is also a short drive away. The host is friendly and helpful, and Chico the Golden Retriever provides a cheerful greeting when you arrive, and will play with you as long as you want.
