If you're visiting Whanganui be sure to stay at the Signal Box. It's quirky and fun with a great outlook over the property and the Whanganui river. The accommodation is very well appointed with everything you might need. The bed is super comfortable and the bathroom, although small, is more than adequate with a good shower. Parking is a breeze and you are only 10-15 minutes from the town centre. Renee has also provided a superb selection of New Zealand books. Be sure to have a look at the folder detailing the history of the signal box. Renee is a great host and although we didn't require any extra help she was readily available.
