Beaufort House Akaroa

The property provides comfortable beds, spacious rooms with beautiful views, and exceptional hospitality. Guests enjoy a quiet location near historic attractions and a delightful breakfast with a variety of options.

The hosts were very welcoming to their elegantly decorated 19th Century house in beautiful Akoroa. Hospitality was very generous with drinks and delicious canapes on the veranda or inside at 6pm. The breakfast was amazing with a wide variety of fruits and cereals. The cooked option with free range eggs was also very tasty with croissants too. The room and bathroom were very comfortable. Helpful restaurant recommendations and also support with a suitcase repair were gratefully received! We would definitely return.

Interesting and convivial hosts made for our New Year's Eve stay an enjoyable and memorable experience. We stayed in the rather snug but quaint Shepherd room with its balcony overlooking the magnificent specimen trees in the beautiful surrounding gardens. The gardens were full of bird song, especially the tuneful bellbird. The owners hosted a delightful early evening drinks and canapes gathering of guests in the garden and even took some photographs of the group and individually. It was a good mixture of fun and laughter amongst the various international clientele. We relaxed in the spacious and interesting sitting room which was crammed full with an eclectic mix of antiques and fine bone English china and glassware which captured our imagination and attention. The breakfast choice was sensational with a healthy option and plentiful portions. A great time all-in-all, to ring in the New Year in a private and peaceful setting close to all of the amenities of the impressive township of Akaroa.
