Relaxing @ Riverstone House

We stayed overnight at Riverstone House in Geraldine Downs. Lovely friendly hosts and a very comfortable upstairs bedroom. Car ride to restaurants in the village. Our host made a delicious big breakfast the next morning. Lol....unfortunately we were not allowed to take Misty with us. Was perfect for our requirements.

Ken and Jenny were outstanding hosts, nothing was a problem. The garden is lovely and we loved coming back in the afternoon, sitting outside overlooking the lovely garden and enjoying the bird song with a glass of wine. There was fresh milk in the fridge with various drink options so if you didnt want wine you were covered.

This is a lovely B & B run by a warm and friendly couple. Their home and grounds sit on five acres of stunning gardens. The room is upstairs in their home with an airy full bathroom. There's a bar fridge stocked with water and milk (for coffee). Coffee, teas, and hot drinks are in the room as well as an iron and board should you need them. We didn't use the TV and the WiFi was very good. Our hosts offered a lovely breakfast with fresh fruit, hot drinks, cereals, toast, and homemade jams. Since we're vegan, we don't know the other breakfast options that are available. This place was a lovely discovery on the drive to Christchurch from the West Coast. Thanks, Jennie and Ken!

Stayed overnight and it was wonderful. Jenny & Ken were so welcoming and friendly offering us great choices for dining in town. Our room was lovely & airy with fantastic views of the garden area. Two beautiful cats and a dog made it so homely. The amenities in our room were great and very clean and the scrumptious cooked breakfast served up by Ken topped our stay there. Highly recommend +++
