Charmae House was a lovely welcoming house and suited us perfectly for our family group of 2, 3 and 4. The location was great, it was roomy with an ensuite and a bathroom. The piano and games were very popular. There was room for our 2 cars which was a bonus.
We loved staying here - it had everything we needed and was warm, inviting and obviously presented with care. Enjoyed that we could walk to the farmers market, town, galleries and around the bridges.
This is an amazing place to stay, sadly I couldn't join the family this year but I know they all loved the house and is really comfortable and well set up. Appreciate the continental breakfast that is provided.
Lovely roomy house with a warm welcoming feel. Comfy beds and a great shower. Fantastic hosts .... friendly and helpful, and the info they provided in the house gave us excellent ideas on what to do and see. Really enjoyed our stay here, highly recommended.
We had a great time in Whanganui, although we were working . Was made a whole lot easier by coming back to a place that felt like home, thanks for having us and we would definitely stay again
