Nestled within 6 acres of stunning lakes and gardens, Donegal House is your cozy retreat away from home. With free WiFi in public areas, you'll always stay connected (if you want to!). Picture yourself unwinding at the traditional Irish bar, enjoying a pint while soaking in some soulful tunes. The restaurant serves up hearty pub-style meals, perfect whether you're dining inside or catching some sun on the terrace.

Only a quick 6-minute drive to the beautiful Kaikoura Beach, and just 10 minutes to both Central Kaikoura and the railway station, you’ve got easy access to some of the area's best spots.

Each room is equipped with its own comfy seating area and TV—ideal for a lazy evening in. They also have en suite bathrooms loaded with all the essentials, including a hairdryer.

After a day of adventure (like swimming with dolphins or exploring Maori culture), come back and cozy up by the fireplace at the bar. The friendly vibe and traditional music make it the perfect end to a fun-filled day!
