About

The Station House Motel is located in the charming village of Collingwood, Golden Bay NZ. It was built in 1907 and was originally the Police Station. It offers two Studio Rooms with En Suite within the Historical House and two Self Contained Cottages. The Station House is ideally located just a few minutes’ walk from the Beach, Courthouse Café, Collingwood Tavern and Museums, and a short drive to iconic Mussel Inn and Langford Store. Collingwood is a quiet location and the perfect place to stay to explore all of Golden Bays Natural Attractions. It’s a short drive to Farewell Spit, Cape Farewell, Wharariki Beach, Te Waikoropupū Springs, and the hosts can assist with arranging tours to Farewell Spit, which depart opposite the Motel. The hosts recommend a minimum three night stay as there is so much to see and do.

    We stayed in the family cottage and it was very comfortable with everything we needed. Only 35 min drive from the start of the Heaphy Track so perfect for the night before our walk.

    7EuanPosted on: 4-7-2025

    It was so quaint! I loved it as central to most places you want to visit. The Hosts were fabulous. I wished I could have stayed longer. I was dropping walkers at the Heaphy Track. Keen to come again to stay longer

    Good location, comfortable, excellent host

    Just needed a kitchen sink

    9WynnePosted on: 3-25-2025

    A lovely quaint little spot! Great hosts. Upgraded to Garden Cottage. Lovely outdoor areas with great seating. Spacious. Being able to leave car out front when going on the Spit tour.

    A little mould starting in joints in shower.

    7RobynPosted on: 3-20-2025

    The location and actual cottage were attractive.

    The lighting was inadequate. I was unable to read in the poor light. The shower had poor pressure, and the towels didn’t absorb well.

    9DavidPosted on: 3-20-2025

    Ideally located by the beach and the Main Street for joining our Farewell Spit tourA warm welcome from our host

    10MaddyPosted on: 3-11-2025

    Lovely host, very comfy beds, super clean. Really enjoyed our stay, would definitely stay again.

    9garyPosted on: 3-11-2025

    Charming stay in a little village.

    No screen on the window to allow airflow without all the bugs coming in. Our current lodging has the exact same window style and has a pull down roller screen.

    8CindyPosted on: 3-10-2025

    Spacious rooms and location was ideal for our booked tour.

    No Air conditioning although we did have a fan, thankyou

    9LisaPosted on: 3-10-2025

    The host was very welcoming. Our studio was larger van expected and felt romy. Having tea/coffee supplies and a small fridge was great.

    10VladimirPosted on: 3-8-2025

    Amazing hotel with spacious owner. Room big with kitchen and good shower. Great restaurant right close to hotel with amazing breakfast.

    All been great!

    10BrianPosted on: 2-23-2025

    The Motel is a great location for visiting Farewell Spit and surrounding area. Local amenities (all good) are just across the road, especially The Old Courthouse.Lovely garden to sit in and enjoy, pity it was raining while I was there.Welcoming Hostess.

    8JoycePosted on: 2-23-2025

    Was handy to many great places to visit. Beaches, Farewell Spit, walks etc

    10CamillePosted on: 2-20-2025

    This great little cottage had everything we needed. There was also 2 beautiful outdoor spaces with lovely gardens. Very quick walk to town and beach with grassy dunes. One of the cleanest and best stocked accommodations we’ve stayed in in New Zealand.

    Loved everything about this property and location. Wished we’d planned a longer stay!

    1KevinPosted on: 2-19-2025

    Had free parking

    Wasn't a motel, was a room inside an old villa, windows didn't open to let fresh air in. Room door opened into hall but front door was shut. Very stuffy especially over night. Bed was uncomfortable, towels were thin and old. The only handbasin was in the bathroom. Pillows were soft and gave no support. Room felt very claustrophobic.

    8MagnusPosted on: 2-4-2025

    The room was very comfortable and fairly well equipped.

    Apartment was located in a back garden, so no views. Some facilities were getting a bit dated.

    8SharonPosted on: 1-30-2025

    Our room was in the old police station, a lovely old building in a very nice setting, and just off the beach.It was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for an enjoyable visit to Collingwood and the north.A friendly welcome and lots of useful information from Sylvie.Would definitely recommend
