Hotel Overview

Where

On the southern boundary of Oamaru, on the east coast of South Island – roughly one hour north of Dunedin.

Rooms at Pen-y-Bryn

The five cosy guestrooms benefit from their hillside location, offering sweeping vistas of historic Oamaru and out towards the South Pacific. French doors lead into private courtyards, period-style furnishings blend with Victorian brass fittings, and porcelain baths invite long soaks after a day of exploring.

Enjoy irresistible breakfasts cooked up by hosts James and James each morning, where you’ll be treated to delicious lodge-made jams and marmalades, home-baked scones or muffins (dubbed "scuffins”) and an assortment of cooked treats. Opt to dine with your hosts one evening to enjoy canapés and cocktails, delectable table d'hôte cuisine, and a friendly dinner-party style atmosphere.
