28th November 2010 After a recent visit to Chillawhile - I just had to come on and comment. Travelling with children it is hard to find a more comfortable environment for your children - and on a budget.
My children had a great time and we lookfoward to future visits - this will be marked as a definate return.
The environment at chillawhile is great - and maybe its just something in the air - but we all slept so well - including the baby - lol - always a good thing.
Anyway - chillawhile comes highly recommended by us - we are sure you will enjoy your visit to Oamaru and chillawhile as much as we did
