The old postmaster's office circa 1903 (queen bed) has its own entrance at street level and bathroom and may be locked off from the rest of the building.

The other wing is ideal for a family, with a double bedroom(Kakariki room) and two single bedrooms adjacent with two bathrooms. Athough, of course, these may be booked independently.

Tea and coffee facilities,naturally.

There is a shared lounge for the street level rooms ( with other guests only) and a large outside deck. The rear of the building looks out over a sunny garden, and is a prime spot to chat with the piwakawakas flitting about, or even if lucky spot the very reticent riflemen birds.

Breakfast is a quality homemade spread of muesli, fruits from the garden, yoghurt and homemade bread and jams.

Come and enjoy the charm and the history of the old post office and the village of Paparoa.
