I had a perfect time at this small but awesome studio. All these little details in the studio made my stay even more perfect. The host was also really lovely and welcoming. I definitely want to return to this amazing place.

Thank you Julie for being such a wonderful host, bubbly and caring. I had a great stay at your place and felt at home as soon I opened the door. Your cottage is so comfy, charming and well equipped and it was a very peaceful place to stay at.

The apartment was well laid out, very new looking inside with everything you could need and all facilities were to a very high standard. There were little extras that you would not necessarily expect like luxury shower gel and shampoo and small chocolates

I am not one for lengthy reviews however there are many things that I would like to comment on. This was a last minute booking for the Vintage weekend in Whanganui (? spelling) the Town was very busy with the majority of good Hotels and Bach's booked up, Fordell is a couple of miles out of town. But this was easily compensated with the Hotel’s location, appearance and the Hosts Stephen and Annette. An 1860’s ranch house which burnt down in 1997 ( I believe ) but rebuilt to the original construction with beautiful “Rimu” orange wooden floor, doors and cupboards.everything authentic, but with some modern extras. A sight to behold. The House with 3 rooms at the moment, is set in very well maintained beautiful grounds and gardens surrounded by Palm Trees and woodlands, almost picture postcard views facing the road. The house has history shouting out from every corner. We stayed two nights, which allowed visits to the weekend activities (vintage weekend is recommended) but also allowed time for a tour by the obviously proud owners S and A , both knowledgeable about their property and it’s history. 3 rooms at present one en-suite, offering a hearty welcome,

The Signal Box

Set in Whanganui in the Manawatu region, The Signal Box has a balcony and river views. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi.

Gill

From

New Zealand

The Signal Box is perfectly formed- well considered in every way. The setting is amazing, a rural scene overlooking the beautiful Whanganui River. Chickens and ducks, and a wide range of fruit trees lie between the Signal Box and the River. The large trees are home to native birds. There's always something to watch or contemplate on. It is so peaceful. The Signal Box is set up for two people so don't bring the family . You need to be able to climb a flight of stairs to get there but once inside the 180 degree outlook is a wondrous thing. And all of this just 8 minutes drive to town! It would be a great place to have some alone time.

Beautiful river city.

Beautiful river city. You can bike safely along designated roads or try the mountain bike parks. You can surf at the local beach. Gardens are magic, and the town bustles. Fab cafes all over. Brilliant arts centre, local artists everywhere, and the Sarjeant Art Gallery is sublime. Try the Riverside Markets Kowhai Park also, is a fantastic spot for young and old, to play and picnic. Easy to get around the city.

A bit off the normal tourist track - but well worth the stop over. Great coffee and toasties at Franks restaurant. Lovely Main Street to look at the shops. A large variety of antique shops. The river is very nice to walk along as well.

The Whanganui Museum and the Sergeant Gallery are both worthy of extended visits, they are a highlight for any visitor to the area. The small arts and crafts galleries are interesting and innovative; some very fine and quirky cafes enrich the experience - for any visitor, Whanganui is now one of the most satisfying cultural locations in NZ.

Shurinji

Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.5

Exceptional - What previous guests thought, 78 reviews

I stayed at Shurinji one night after my flight from Nelson to Wellington on my way to the Tongariro Nationalpark. It felt like a home away from home and was like being part of a family (the two cuddly dogs included) :-) The garden is extraordinary and beautiful. Andrew and Penny took great care of me (I was having trouble with my back) and also gave me some tips what to do around Whanganui (Bushy Park for example was a great tip to see some NZ birds up close). So, a great and beautiful place to stay.

I had initially some hesitation about booking this accommodation, but I have to admit it was excellent. It’s close to the beach….it was very clean, had everything one needs….. which made it all very comfortable. The hostess lives next door and couldn’t be more friendly. I loved it and will definitely recommend it to anyone who plans to visit Whanganui.
