Ruth's B& B was very comfortable, well presented and clean. A lot of thought was put into small details to make the stay enjoyable. Ruth and Brian were very friendly and helpful without being intrusive. The situation is great with magnificent views nearby over the town and mountains (the town centre is about a mile walk though). The facility is not en suite but you get a private bathroom so it is "as good as". English visitors should note that breakfast is provided by giving you all you need to serve yourself when you wish (the norm for NZ) - do not expect an English style "sit down". There are very convenient laundry facilities. The situation is very peaceful. Strongly recommended.
