Everything was as explained, the house was clean and tidy, location very suitable and to learn a little of the history was great. We didn’t meet our hosts so cannot rate.Would definitely consider number 4 Baldwin Street as a place to stay again. Cheers John.

Nice spot for an overnight

Visiting my son at Uni - great for an overnight stay with the bonus of a tourist attraction on the door. All very easy and smooth, and close enough to the uni to be easy.

Dunedin, NZ

We visited a friend in Dunedin and this house was a perfect jump off spot for us to maneuver around town. It was a great location for us to access a market, a few diners and the botanical gardens nearby.

Perfectly Perfect

Absolutely gorgeous little house. Everything you could possibly need is there - well appointed kitchen, things for children to do, baby equipment (if needed) and lots of personal touches too. Plenty of information about what to see and do in Dunedin, North End is a great place to base yourself. Easy access to the City either by car or foot or bus. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and will definitely be back.
