    Absolutely nothing not to like. Amazing!!

    Absolute gem. Everything was immaculate. You walk in and don’t want to leave. Location perfect. So lucky to meet both Violeta and Scott which was just lovely. Cottage is a real credit to them. Decor is very tasteful. We have family living in Oamaru and this will most definitely be our go to and just hope we are fortunate enough that it’s available at the time. Thank you so much. Warmest regards

    The cottage is a little bit small for a stay of several nights, but there are some clever space-saving features that help maximise the space. Love the kitchen table!

    The cottage was cosy, comfortable, and very conveniently located for all the things we wanted to do in Oamaru. The bed was comfy, the rooms were spotlessly clean, and the shower was to-die-for!! (We're going to search for one of those showerheads for our own home.)

    Nothing at all..

    "Right on Tyne" was the perfect property for our stay in Oamaru. The apartment has everything required for a short or long term stay, such as a fridge, full oven and a washing machine. It was spotlessly clean. The location is absolutely perfect and only a 2 minute walk to the Old Town and Wharf Area. Violetta was a great communicator and made us feel welcome. We will definitely be back...

    It was in a great spot close to shops & cafes. The apartment was such a surprise upon opening the door- it had everything we could possibly want. The underfloor heating in the bathroom, along with the heated towel racks was so lovely. The kitchen was well set out & equipped. The lounge even though small was comfortable & the bedroom linen& pillows were of great quality- even a choice of pillows!

    Very modest from the outside but superbly renovated inside, with every gadget and comfort you could think of. All the extras bells and whistles, located very centrally. Managed to park our little car on the metal area, but most would need to park out front on the road. Really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

    If I was to think of an area for improvement it would be the bed mattress .Both my partner and I thought it wasn’t very comfortable .Was the only thing everything else was perfect.

    Clean , tidy everything needed for our stay was provided. Quiet location close to town .

    Nothing we didn’t like, gorgeous bathroom and beautiful bedroom, l found bed was very comfortable and lush nice high set bed, felt like a princess in it. Only thing l would say it would be nice if there could be a small armchair as well as the two seater couch

    Excellent location on the flat by the sea. Just parked car up and was able to walk around township. Sadly we didn’t get to meet the hosts as we were out when Violeta came
