A Bed and
Breakfast is as the
name suggest a type of accommodation that offers a bed and
breakfast. Usually B&Bs are a house that has been
transformed to accommodate guests, They offer you an ensuite
room, with towels and bed linen, just as you would find at a
hotel, In the morning you will be treated to a delicious
breakfast to start your wonderful day.
The unique
thing about B&Bs
is the privacy and seclusion you feel while staying there,
where often you will be the only guest in the house. There
are many types of Bed & Breakfast, from there more
simple ones, to the very luxurious where you sleep in a room
fit for the queen and king. Some offer
a simpler breakfast and others will serve and
breakfast like you never seen before, offering almost
anything imaginable, either way you will start your day on a
very good note. Some also provide a lunch or dinner, but that
is not normally included in the price.
A lot of
Bed and Breakfast are hosted by
elderly couples, with children have grown up and
moved out of home, and which now have left some empty rooms
in the house. They then renovate and modify the house, so
that they can accommodate guests. They like to have the
extra company and the opportunity to meet new people, apart
from the little extra money to complement their retirement.
Some hosts can be very friendly and talkative, and interested
in getting to know you, and giving tips and telling stories
about the area. where others you might not see until
breakfast in the morning, and even then for a very short
time. This is not because they are not friendly or do not
like to talk, but simply feel that you want absolute
privacy.
Prices
start from around
NZ$80 per night, for more simpler one. For the more luxurious ones you can expect to
pay NZ$120 or more, depending on the level of luxury and the
location. Some B&Bs are set in the most beautiful
locations such as deep in the mountain, or by a lake, with
beautiful gardens and amazing landscape.
You can book a room in a Bed & Breakfast in any
