A beautifully illustrated book, very reasonably priced for the wealth of information it contains. My husband and I love choosing our own itinerary when travelling and especially love staying at Bed and Breakfasts. A very informative book which correlates very well with the Lonely Planet on New Zealand. I do have the Friar's Guide to New Zealand Accommodation for the Discerning Traveller 2005 which is a magnificent book to have in one's library. However, this Guide by Elizabeth James is something one can take on one's travels and is compact. It also has a great description and lovely, individual illustrations of many places of varying cost from which to choose in both the North and South Islands. A great purchase!

WE HAD A RESERVATION FOR THE 1ST. 2 NIGHTS WE WERE IN NEW ZEALAND, WHICH I HAD MADE OUT OF THIS BOOK, AND AFTER THAT FOR THE NEXT 2 WEEKS WE DAILY TRAVELED TRYING TO GUESS AS TO OUR NEXT OVERNIGHT STOP AND WE NEVER WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO TRAVEL THIS WAYWITHOUT THIS BOOK. IT WAS AFFORDABLE, AND A WONDERFUL WAY TO GO AND MEET THE PEOPLE IN THE COUNTRY YOU ARE VISITING.
ANOTHER PLUS IS THAT IT ALSO TAKES UP NO ROOM IN YOUR LUGGAGE!

The B&B book is loaded with choices of nice places to stay with personal writings on each by the owner/operators of the various B&Bs. My only request would be for each entry to show one photo of the rooms at their establishment.
