Great stay with our friendly hosts.
Our friendly hosts, Diana and Noel, made us very welcome and provided us with lovely breakfasts as well as a few little goodies. They were very kind, attentive, interested and interesting hosts. Noel set us up with a movie to watch each night. We really enjoyed our stay there in what seems to be an increasingly rare traditional B&B. They are long-time Invercargill residents and have done an amazing job of restoring and fitting out this old home.

An absolute gem.
This beautiful boutique b&b was an amazing find. The property, built in c1910 is tastefully decorated, in keeping with the style of the time and provides comfortable, spacious accommodation for the lucky traveller to enjoy. Your hosts, Noel and Diana have owned the house for 50 years and welcome you into their home as if you were one of the family. There are restaurants within walking distance and shopping only a short drive away and Noel and Diana will happily provide you with helpful tips on where to eat and things to do in the area. I cannot recommend the Villa Rouge highly enough. You will not be disappointed.

This beautiful bed and breakfast is a real treat for the senses - gorgeous decorations and very kind and friendly hosts who serve up a delicious breakfast in a proper breakfast room. It was tempting to curl up on the window seat in the adjacent library with a good book and a cosy fire - perfect for a rainy day!

My wife and I have stayed at many Air BnB’s in many countries. Villa Rouge is by far and away the best place we have ever stayed at. If you are in Imvercargill and don’t stay at Villa Rouge, you will miss out on one the the finest B&B’s in New Zealand. The accommodations were very welcoming, lovely and spacious. The hosts were generous with their time and gave great suggestions. The breakfast was exquisite. Every morsel was tastier than the last. If we could give the Villa 10 smiles we would. Do yourself a favor, spend time at Villa Rouge it will be a marvelous stay. Many thanks to our hosts, they are special people with a special home.

Super stay
We had a very warm welcome from Diana and Noel. Nothing was too much trouble. The house is an absolute delight. Lovely room. Super bathroom. Breakfast was a teeny weeny bit early for our holiday mode, but it just gave us more time to enjoy our day, so not a problem. Highly recommend Villa Rouge.

We had a lovely stay at Villa Rouge. The room was beautifully decorated, tea and coffee facilities excellent, the bathroom was luxurious and we even had our own lounge room with a large selection of films on offer, viewed on a huge screen. The breakfasts were lovely. Our hosts, Noel and Diana, are delightful and great company. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Rouge. Highly recommended!

The property was very homely, comfortable and well appointed with tea and coffee making facilities and home baking in the bedroom. The hosts, Noel and Di, were very friendly and helpful with good suggestions of where to see and where to eat. I liked the fact that we had the front half of the house to ourselves with our own parlour/lounge with a home movie screen and an pen fire making it very homely and relaxing. The bedroom was large and the bed very comfortable. The ensuite bathroom was also large, modern and well appointed with bath and shower. The property has two bedrooms which are only let out to families or friends travelling together so you are not sharing your facilities with strangers.

Extraordinary and a must stay experience
Words and images cannot relay how much we have enjoyed our stay with Noel and Diana at their Bed and Breakfast. Great engaging hosts in their c.1910 villa which is warm and extremely comfortable with modern mod cons. The interior rooms ( bed rooms, movie room, breakfast room, kitchen, entrance hall, library) have so much tastefull attention to detail that it's a marvellous world of art gallery discovery in every room. We have never have experienced such an amazing B&B in our worldly travels as this. Noel is the pro on the cooked breakfasts and coffees. The bedroom has an alcove with fridge and hot drinks facilities. Diana is the bright shining star and a marvellous welcoming host. Within minutes one feels part of Diana's and Noels family. The house has had 40 years of love and care. On our next visit to Invercargill this is the place to stay. .

We experienced such a warm welcome from our hosts who instantly made us feel at home. The accommodation is so full of character and beautifully presented, with our own lounge to relax in with movies and books galore. Our bedroom was spacious with tea/coffee/fridge/homemade treats and some complimentary beverages - the bed was comfortable - and the location was central yet so quiet. It was bliss to relax in the claw foot bath in the lovely large bathroom and soak away my tiredness. The generosity of spirit is everywhere with little touches and considerations. Breakfast in the morning was brilliant - scrambled eggs and bacon with homemade bread (toast), preserves, cereals, fruit and yoghurt. We loved every minute of our stay and would return in a moment!
