"Absolutely loved our stay at the Fern & Thistle Hotel in Balclutha! The historic charm of the house is beautifully preserved, with a stunning vintage garden full of old roses and unique plants. The amenities are outstanding—from the cozy dry sauna in a barrel cabin to the luxurious hot tubs (one in the room and a massive one in the garden). The countryside views add a peaceful touch, and the complimentary drinks and local beer were a generous bonus. Our room had a super king-size bed and Netflix on the TV, making it the perfect spot to unwind. The owner is warm, polite, and clearly takes pride in every detail. A truly special place—highly recommend!
Steam curls in the garden air,
roses dream in silence there.
Barrel sauna, warm and still,
country hush on every hill.
Golden beer and velvet bed,
gentle words the owner said.
In this house, the past is near- peace and beauty, crystal clear."
"We enjoyed our short stay. The bed, shower and heat pump were excellent. Hayley was very responsive to our queries. Better weather would have allowed us to experience the deck and environment!"
"Property is great but I would like to have seen a stove-top inside the house so I could cook. There is a microwave and a jug and this was welcome. I really liked the secret garden beside the house. That was a good idea.Staff were welcoming and helpful. -DC "
