We had a really lovely experience at the Blackman Rd Homestay. The house was so beautiful and everything felt so comfortable, especially the beds! Angela and Garry are really friendly and provided us with anything we asked for. The house is located in the beautiful countryside of Otago, just a 10-15 minute drive from Alexandra. If your planning on doing the central rail trail, I would highly recommend on staying here! We enjoyed our stay and wish we could have stayed longer.
