Lianne and Henry are friendly hosts, offering lovely, spacious accommodation with beautiful surroundings.
The outdoor area is delightful and provided us with one of the best sunsets of our trip.
It is a short five-minute drive into the town of Kaikoura, and if you continue just beyond the town you come to the Pier Hotel. It is in a fabulous spot with beautiful views; and serves good beer and food too.
Lianne was especially generous with the breakfast options.
We didn’t get to do the whale-watching boat trip. However we managed to drive around the peninsula to an ideal spot where we were fortunate enough to see a colony of seals and a pod of dolphins in the bay.
We would highly recommend staying at Lianne and Henry’s place.
