We stayed quite a few times at short notice, often arriving late and leaving early as we sorted a deceased estate property in the area. What a clean, relaxed, amazing place this is. The staff are wonderful, the service top notch, the rooms so beautifully restored and you are treated with respect and care, as if you are family. We couldn't speak highly enough of our experiences. We had food allergies and need to access the hotel after hours and nothing was a bother. We definitely plan to revisit

We stayed at the Studholme Hotel with our children. Each bedroom has William Morris wallpaper, period furnishings and rural views. It is a lovely place to stay and we will definitely come again when we are going to Timaru as it isn't far away.

We were travelling through here on a private train trip. The train stopped and we all wandered over to the Hotel for a drink. What fun. A lovely place to enjoy a meal and a drink.

A well kept, clean Hotel. Interesting photo's to peruse and a nice beer to be had. It's hidden off the main road, but worth the very short detour.

A friend told me about this nicely renovated historic hotel, just 2 minutes off the main road between Oamaru and Timaru, that we should check out. Glad we did because we found a hidden gem. The place reeks local history with photos on the walls. The blue cod was fantastic. Service was very friendly and hospitable. Clean restrooms. Plenty of parking. Looked like a nice place to stay for a night as well.
