Welcome to Blackhead Cottage
Farmstay Bed and Breakfast Cottage Accommodation

Blackhead house and cottage

Blackhead Cottage provides farmstay-style bed and breakfast accommodation in a peaceful, rural valley on the
Southern Scenic Route, close to Dunedin city.  Only 10 to 15 minutes drive to the centre of town, it is a convenient base
from which to explore Dunedin and its attractions while enjoying the tranquility and beauty of the southern Dunedin coast.
 
Whether you're coming to Dunedin for a holiday, attending your child's graduation ceremony or a Highlander's rugby match,
Blackhead Cottage provides a relaxing and comfortable place to stay.

Blackhead Cottage is a warm, tastefully decorated cottage set in a large established garden.
Enjoy a drink on the sunny deck, take a short walk over our farmland to see spectacular cliff top views (gumboots provided!)
or walk or drive to nearby Tunnel Beach or Blackhead Beach.

History

The cottage is adjacent to the original farmhouse in the valley,
built by an early Irish settler, John Knox, in approximately 1870.
The property was originally called Nobbler's Farm and is now home to
John's great grandson and family.
