    Loved the farmhouse, location, room, gardens and the view. The room was comfortable and adequate for our one night stay. The location was very peaceful away from the town and close to the seal colony. The host, Peter, had excellent communication...

We are nestled in a bay which overlooks where the mountains meet the sea. A short walk to the seal colony which hosts the beginning to the walkway around the Peninsula. We have a 100 acre sheep farm and operate a Sheep Shearing Show. We have one farm dog called Jed, 300 sheep and 1 dozen hens.
The Seal colony is a 10 minute walk from our B&B, explore the colony before heading off on the Kaikoura peninsula walk. Fyffe House is just around the corner, it is Kaikoura's oldest house and open to the public.
