Bayfield Motels

4.3(130 reviews)

About

In South Island, Bayfield Motels occupies 1003 George Street, Dunedin North, Dunedin 9016, New Zealand, on the east coast of the South Island.

Guests who have stayed here have given it 4.3 out of 5 across 130 reviews, a solid record for a motel in Dunedin North. The George Street setting puts it within Dunedin's northern suburbs, and the city sits among the stops travellers commonly link on a South Island circuit alongside Christchurch, Queenstown, Wanaka, Te Anau, Nelson, Blenheim and Kaikoura. Dunedin itself is a university town with a compact centre, so a car or a local bus makes the surrounding coast and hinterland straightforward to reach from this base.

A website at https://www.highlandhouse.co.nz/ carries the booking side of the motel. Rates, room types and check-in arrangements sit with the property itself, and the Dunedin North address places it just north of the city centre.

New Zealand cooking leans on lamb, dairy and seafood, with green-lipped mussels, bluff oysters and crayfish among the things to try. Weather across the country changes quickly, and the surrounding ocean keeps both summer heat and winter frost moderate, so layers suit a South Island trip. Ferries serve Waiheke, the Hauraki Gulf islands and Stewart Island, and a Cook Strait service links the two main islands, which matters if the itinerary runs beyond Dunedin.
