Blue Ridge Bed & Breakfast
Boutique Accommodation with all the comforts of home
Julia & Phillip warmly welcome you to Blue Ridge Bed and Breakfast, Te Anau.
Blue Ridge opened its doors in 2004 with one room situated within our home. We enjoyed many of the aspects of bed and breakfast so much, we decided to build a purpose built guest lodge containing 3 stylishly appointed self contained studio apartments within our grounds the following year (2005) and enlarged and refurbished the Kea Room, making it into a comfortable and spacious suite of 2 rooms plus an adjoining en suite bathroom. We have slowly worked away at the landscaping and gardens and now have a beautiful English style garden with lots of perennials and mature trees, as well as over 60 roses.


We are situated at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac away from traffic noise but conveniently located just a few minutes stroll (literally 600 metres) to the Town Centre with its many restaurants, shops and beautiful Lake Te Anau.
Our 4 beautifully appointed guest rooms are named after New Zealand native birds found in the Fiordland area and all have comfortable king sized beds, couches to lounge on and modern tiled en suite bathrooms with powerful showers, heated floor tiles, towel warmers, hairdryers, fluffy white pure cotton towels and bathrobes. Luxurious organic lavender toiletries are provided.
There is complimentary wireless internet connection throughout the property and a guest laptop is available. We are committed to your privacy, comfort and warmth in beautiful, relaxing surroundings. To read more about us and to see what others have said about their experience at Blue Ridge

Our dining room has stunning views of the Murchison mountains and our beautiful garden.
