About

Found on South Island, Waitiki Braids sits at 61 Bledisloe Street in Kurow 9435, a small settlement inland from the coast.

Guests rate it 4.8 out of 5 across 259 reviews, a strong showing for a guest house in a town this size. Kurow sits inland from the coast, within reach of Christchurch, Dunedin, Queenstown and Wanaka, while Blenheim, Nelson, Kaikoura and Te Anau lie further along the South Island road network. The property keeps a website at https://www.waitakibraids.com/ for anyone planning a stay.

The South Island is reached by a Cook Strait service that links the two main islands, with ferries also serving Waiheke and Stewart Island. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names appear on signs throughout the country.

Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast, which makes the drive itself part of a South Island trip.
