Better than home

Review of Riverside B & B
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 2 Feb 2018via mobile
Linda and Kieran are the most amazing hosts and very knowledgeable about the area. Their home is comfortable and very relaxing, lovely en suite rooms, air conditioning in main areas and great outdoor areas as well. All their years in hospitality and restaurants show through with the ease in which they welcome people and turn out such tasty food as well - if they offer to cook you an evening meal take up the offer. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay.

    Very friendly hosts who make you feel very welcome. We did our washing in their machine. Breakfasts are lovely,
    with home made preserves, and well cooked - with eggs from their own hens. A lovely, comfortable stay.

    Everything was wonderful at this place. The food, the rooms, the garden and the area where the hotel is located. The food was excellent and the hosts make you feel welcome. I highly recommend Riverside B&B

    The facilities are excellent but what sets this place apart from the competition is the excellence of the cooking. I very rarely take pictures of food but did so here and the home cured salmon and the pudding shown below were truly excellent not to mention the main course of roast lamb. As a solo traveller it was good to join a communal meal with the other five guests and our hosts. A very convivial occasion.
    It was so magnificent I decided to stay on an extra night (also waiting for the clear day at Mount Cook) and although booked up, Kieran and Lynn fixed me up with a neighbour within walking distance so that I could return for my dinner with a completely different but every bit as good menu
