The nearest store for stocking up on food and supplies is SuperValue, just a 2-minute drive down the road.

Things to Do

THINGS TO DO

The Brewer's Night Inn has lots to keep you busy. Admire the unique victorian-inspired decor, soothe away your stresses in the large concrete soak tub, or nestle into the comfortable sofa to start on that book you've been meaning to read. Check out the music room with its stand-up piano, high-end stereo, and turntable. A seasonally curated vinyl collection is provided for your listening pleasure. There are also some 'olden-day games' and cards.

If you want to explore, Reefton is a little town with much to offer. There are bush walks amongst the hills, mountain bike trails, kayaking, and rafting tours - or enjoying the novelty of a gold panning experience. If you want to learn more about the town's history, check out the Blacks Point Museum and heritage buildings such as the Reefton Distillery, home of 'Little Biddy Gin'.

TESTIMONIALS

“ It was an absolute treat to stay at The Brewers Night Inn. From the outside, it looks like a fairly modest, but tidy older home. Open the door to discover a whole new, beautifully curated world from Reefton's past. All the luxuries are available, including a stunning bath, lovely cooking facilities, and a very comfortable bed with divine linen. And then there are the touches which make it so special—the old newspapers on the wall, the vintage trinkets, a secret wardrobe. You are stepping back into the cottage of a miner from the past. Everything is right about this gorgeous little Inn. Tim was the perfect host. We could have stayed forever and highly recommend it. ”
