This was best stay we've had in Oamaru over many visits.
Really nice character house; spotless, comfortable, great shower and bath, good beds and with plenty of space. Only two blocks from the Victorian part of Oamaru, with a bunch of cafe's, playgrounds, brewery, steampunk HQ etc a very short walk away. Very quiet despite being so close to everything. You can also ride the alps to ocean cycle trail right from the house - it's only two blocks from the trail! We rode to Duntroon from there and had a great time. The hosts are very nice and helpful too.
