Can’t believe our luck, this place was such a perfect spot for us. Peace & quite, amazing service by our wonderful hosts, nothing was a problem!!!  The homestead is steeped in history & the decor is in keeping with the history, this place has “great bones”. Rooms are well appointed and spacious. The hosts are a dab hand in the kitchen!!! There’s lots of love being put into the gardens and outside areas. 
Next time we are back in Russell this is where we will stay. 

Wow wow wow!!!

We were looking for a short notice place to stay in Russell and were taken with the look of the house and its location - on lovely Matauwhi Bay and a short walk into town. We were not disappointed by the house or surrounds, a beautiful and homely place to stay with its turn of the century appointments and sympathetically modernised interiors. The truly lovely thing however are Gordon and Liz, great hosts who made us feel at home from the first minute and like friends as we bade goodbyes. Very pleased we took the decision to stay at their lovely home and the breakfast is great, different each day, proper size portions and superbly prepared...

Tremendous weekend in Russell

Ounuwhao Harding House is a beautifully restored historic kauri villa located just on the outskirts of Russell. The property looks out onto a calm bay full of sailing ships, yet is only a short 10 minute walk into the heart of Russell. Liz and Gordon are great hosts who enjoy people, and sharing their love of the Bay of Islands. Our room was spacious and beautifully decorated. We slept soundly both nights in the large comfy bed. Indulge yourself with a bit of luxury, while you spend time in this scenic part of NZ with wonderful hosts.

Beautiful historic B&B in Russell

This is an outstanding B&B.  Ideally positioned in Russell with large, comfortable and extremely clean and well appointed rooms. Certainly one of the best places I have ever stayed with the hosts, Liz and Gordon are so helpful and accommodating  scrummy breakfasts.

Excellent is an understatement

Liz and Gordon are fantastic hosts. Their home is charming and very comfortable. Liz gave us a great breakfast everyday each day different from the last and it was truly special and delicious. The verandas and the lounge provided beautiful places to relax and from the veranda views over the sea. We had a wonderful and magical time there close to Russell itself which again is a wonderful place to be. Definitely a place to go to highly recommended.

Wonderful 

This B&B is a very old and charming house, very closeby the village of Russell. just a short walk. Nice room, good breakfast and a warm welcome from the owners Liz and Gordon. they rrserve for you at the restaurants.

beautiful and very charming

This historic house is beautiful and the decor is in keeping with the style. I felt really at home and peaceful there. The hosts were friendly, generous and very helpful. Fabulous breakfast. The bay is across the road and the town centre a short walk away

Comfortable, peaceful, fabulous house, hosts and location

This was truly a wonderful place to revisit after 25 years, a real testament to the hard work of the hosts. Liz & Gordon were truly wonderful, which made our week stay a delight, nothing was to much effort, you only had to ask. Apron arrival in our room was a lovely card, & a bottle of Champas for us, what a lovely thought😀😀Breakfast was always fresh, with a different selection served every morning. The house was exactly how we remembered it, originally built in 1894, this is just a stunning , & beautifully presented Homestead, cannot fault this place, 
 lovely kauri timbers throughout,  a must to visit & stay. Would definitely recommend when in Russell, Northland. New Zealand. Thank you again Liz & Gordon.

25 Year Anniversary

Our stay at Ounuwhao Harding House was very very nice. The whole house has so much character it’s just amazing. 
The hosts Liz and Gordon were so friendly and helpful it was just like staying with family. Nothing was too much for them. They always had time for you.
Their breakfasts were to die for - all nice and fresh and a nice selection. 
We will definitely go back again.
Thanks again Liz and Gordon for a lovely stay.

A very special place to stay in Russell

With no prior booking, we stumbled across this picture pretty 1930's home with a separate cottage. Marilyn runs a B and B with several rooms in the house all with ensuites and a cottage for families . Nothing is lacking . Set on a beautiful block, the house was brought in from a forest block in 4 pieces. It is a stunning  historical home filled with homemade quilts that Marilyn makes . She even teaches quilt making. 
Breakfast was amazing . Homemade preserves,macerated fruits,everything from the garden,pancakes, zucchini fritters, home made Bircher muesli and hot cross buns. All made with a real passion and energy. Well worth the $240 . 
A lovely find.
