Michael's Bookbinder's Retreat is a unique traveller's experience and it was a privilege to spend some time there.
The dwelling is superbly furnished with every comfort and need, at the same time showcasing Michael's skills and knowledge of slower times when craft was valued and practiced.
The Bookbinder's Retreat is well-placed to explore and enjoy all the delights Oamaru's history offers. There are also artisan talents in the community to discover...everything from Michael's own hand-bound books to food, coffee, soaps and more.
Go, be indulged and enjoy!
