In a private setting on a 6-acre farm the clean, comfortable and friendly hospitality of Height of Dunedin suits a couple or up to 5 guests.
Height of Dunedin boasts a sunny, 44 square metre detached guesthouse in a lovely peaceful and tranquil hideaway. Perfect for honeymooners or a small family yet only 6 minutes away is Roslyn with an award-winning restaurant, cafes, day spa, pharmacy, wine bar, artisan shops and supermarket. All this at 350 metres above sea level guarantees some snow falls during winter and beautiful, picturesque surroundings.

You can hand-feed pet animals on a self-guided wander. Awaken to the morning chorus of abundant birdlife: tuis, singing bellbirds, plump wood pigeons, warbling magpies, paradise ducks, hunting hawks, owls and NZ’s rare rosella parrots.
A direct 10 minutes drive to The Octagon CBD yet Height of Dunedin captures a retreat of feeling miles away. Especially close to the neighbouring forest walking tracks and the Flagstaff-Pineapple Walk with its stunning views of Dunedin and the Otago Peninsula from the western hill skyline.
