This Fox Street property is delightful, very homely, and in an ideal location. The hosts whom we didn’t have the pleasure of meeting have added all the creature comforts which added to our enjoying our stay. We were grateful we were able to bring our pet and the park being in such close proximity was great for walky times. We will not hesitate in recommending a stay here.

Warm and homely place, very comfortable with good sunlight. Quiet street but very close to town. Good little fenced garden area to contain a small dog, and very close to Queen’s Park for walks. This place had everything we needed for a week’s stay, and was a very pleasant experience. I would stay here again next time I am in Invercargill

Lovely house in a great location when in Invercargill. Right next to the beautiful Queens gardens which has a lot of areas to explore, yet a short drive to the city centre and other attractions.

Outstanding Invercargill Stay
We would give a 6 star rating to this property if we could. Immaculate, beautiful inside and out. The beds were really comfy, as was the living room furniture. Very well appointed and spacious. The front deck faces a quiet street and overlooks a magnificent garden. The property is located 700 meters from downtown, and is a lovely walk. Highly recommend a stay here.

Beds
Lovely property so close to everything. Don't want to be critical, but single bed mattresses need uodating to make better nights sleep.
Clean, well-appointed, comfortable - it’s like staying at a friend’s house, where the friend does the work to make you feel welcome. It’s in a quiet street and the garden is lovely.
Everything about it is done properly and well. And did I mention clean?

Great accommodation, well located, lovely hosts.
The house is well maintained, has a pretty garden, plenty of rooms, and a kitchen with everything you would need. It's handy to the city and very close to Queens Park, which is stunningly beautiful and by itself worth a stay in Invercargill. Gordon and Viv were lovely hosts - we met them when we arrived a bit early just as they were finishing up getting the place ready. Highly recommended.
