Fantail Cottage is a sweet place in a great location in this surprisingly interesting town. Trish, the host has artistic talent oozing from her pores and you must visit her house and gallery nearby. She has decorated the cottage with her set, too! Don't miss the Basilica just over the hill-- yes, Oamaru has a remarkable Basilica, not to mention Steampunk Headquarters, blue penguins, seals, thousands of shags, incredible Victorian whitestone architecture, and be sure to visit the Grainstore Gallery by Donna Demente!
