Bed & Breakfast, Farmstays, Guesthouses and Homestays
Bed & Breakfast accommodation, including farmstays and homestays, can offer visitors to the country an insight into New Zealand home life. It is widely available throughout New Zealand and varies widely from a room in a family home to self-contained accommodation in an historic country cottage, or even a lighthouse!
Bathroom facilities may be shared or ensuite, and breakfasts range from self-catered cereal, fresh bread and fruit to huge home cooked meals. Farmstays offer guests the option of helping with the daily tasks on the farm; watching the cows being milked is always a popular choice with children! Prices vary greatly but start around NZ$80 per night.
@Home NEW ZEALAND is New Zealand's largest professional organisation of hosted accommodation providers. More information is available at
