Warkworth Country House

A very welcoming B&B, set in lovely gardens and about 5 minutes drive from the centre of Warkworth. Our room was compact, with limited storage space, and had outside seating areas overlooking the gardens. It was ideal for our one-night stay. The hosts are very friendly and helpful.

We spent some time at Tawharanui only 17 km away and after tramping for several hour, this B&B was the perfect place to overnight and then continue our journey. On arrival we were greeted by Alan, rooms are cosy, spotless and comfortable. Delicious homemade and chocolates were in rooms with coffee plunger and assortment of teas was on offer and very relaxing view from the room in to a well cared garden. The whole property looks very nice and well cared for. Breakfast again was delicious, fresh fruit salad, homemade jams and perfectly fresh poached eggs and good tasting coffee Alan and Linley are perfect host and made us feel very comfortable . We definitely would stay there again and i would recommend that property to anyone without any hesitation. Thanks for looking after us Alan & Linley

We were up north for a wedding, found accommodation fit for a queen!! Linley and Alan welcome us with warm harts and a warm breakfast to die for!! Crispy bacon, perfectly cooked eggs, toast and all the trimmings that make a perfect English breakfast served at times we required. Beautiful spacious and clean rooms, bed was very comfortable. Fresh towels, tidy up and a refill of the amazing baking tray was done daily. Linley and Alan offered their beautiful house for the bride to get ready in and drove her stylishly in a vehicle some of us can only dream of. Massive big thank you to the best B&B up North we highly recommend you and will definitely return. Cheers L&C

Stayed one night in the queen room on the way north. Arrived early, but Linley called and told us where to find the key to the room. Very peaceful spot with views over the garden and forest behind. Comfortable room, good shower, and some nice snacks to go with the tea and coffee. Alan was very keen to give us lots of information re the area, and their recommendation to eat in town at Aldo’s was spot on. Good breakfast before driving on.

Linley and Alan are great hosts. They were very accommodating about our arrival time and we had a lovely room with everything we needed. Comfortable large bed, spacious bathroom with plenty of hot water, and nice snacks on our arrival. Our breakfast was wonderful with plenty of choice and flexibility - thank you Linley. If you happen to be interested in sailing, Alan has a sailing history and is happy to talk about boats. All up, a lovely house run by two lovely people. We would be very happy to stay there again.

We had arranged for a late arrival to this property but due to our plane arriving 1 1/2 hours late, we were quiet late. Our Hosts Alan & Linley went above and beyond in welcoming us to their home. They have a lovely B&B. The room and bathroom were very clean. There was cold water waiting for us in our room with several home baked goodies to snack on. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast, held in their dining room, was delicious. Before our departure, Alan spent some time with us to discuss our plans for the day, with some suggestions of where to stop on the way to our next destination. Would definitely stay here again.
