Accommodation is a room in the charming old villa. I have a large spare room with two beds and a second room with a queen bed.
I can provide all meals. Mainly vegetarian. But farm meat when available and eggs. Happy to do other dietary options.
Portobello is located 20 mins from Dunedin central. Having your own car allows access to the sights on the peninsula otherwise there is a good bus service.
We have a couple bikes and a kayak for your use.
