Amazing BnB, would recommend to everyone
The breakfast spread was so good! It had so many different options and each so tasty! The owner was lovely and gave some great recommendations which made the stay that much more enjoyable.
Nothing at all, everything was…

A very relaxing enjoyable stay.
Fantastiic location for a jaunt to Cardrona, quiet and a very homely ambiance with spectacular views of snow covered mountains. Even the cat made you feel at home hogging the fire.
Well prepared and delicious…

Great place to stay
Blyth and Ann are great hosts and the furnishings in the homestead was absolutely outstanding, lovely place with warm atmosphere. Also breakfast served in the morning was perfect.

Questions about Waiorau Homestead

What time is check-in and check-out at Waiorau Homestead?

Check-in is from 4:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:30 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Waiorau Homestead allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Waiorau Homestead?

Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.

Does Waiorau Homestead have a pool?

Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.

Does Waiorau Homestead have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does Waiorau Homestead have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

How do I book Waiorau Homestead?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
