The house is impressive, the rooms lovely, the bed linens luxurious, but the real treat here is the people --- hosts Jocelyn and Sandy. We were there only two nights, but left feeling that we had been cared for in a way unlike at any other place we have stayed. Jocelyn greeted us on arrival with an offer of refreshment,... More

If you're thinking about visiting Dunedin, you couldn't pick a better B&B than Glendinning House. Jocelyn and Sandy were wonderful hosts. Nothing was too much trouble. Glendinning House itself is magnificent. Our bedroom suite was beautiful, as were the dining and reception rooms. The breakfasts were fantastic, especially Jocelyn's scrambled eggs. We visited Dunedin as part of a 10 South... More

This was the last place I stayed in New Zealand and it was by far the best. The owners make you feel at home. I didn't want to leave. Everything about it was beautiful.

The location in the small village of Roslyn 5 min from the town center of Dunedin was perfect.
