Review Studholme Hotel - Waimate

Third time in for dinner, this time with a mate. Got there just before 8 on a Friday night, only one table vacant, but we were fed quickly with generously sized meals. The choices sounded so good, making it hard to choose, but I went with the pork, fennel and chilli pasta. A nice amount of each ingredient making for a well balanced, tasty dish. My mate enjoyed his burger.

After being recommended by another local, my wife and I decided to dine at the studholme hotel . A culinary experience not to be missed . Steak cooked to perfection, tender and as described as per their menu. Sharp service, Sharp pricing and an experience to be savored. Highly recommended.

Awesome service. Will definitely be back

Great country pub, very cosy and friendly.

A "not obvious to find" place behind a Fonterra milk processor but what a nice gem! This 116 year old hotel has just 6 rooms still with the air of being in 1916. Amenities and facilities are all modern of course. The bar and small dining area is contemporary, well done and comfortable. Local residents are keen to chat. There's a place near but away from the bar for children to play. The management is relaxed and trusting. Super friendly & helpful. For us, we enjoyed our one night in room 5 with a realy nice meal. Rural history of this calibre is to be savoured. Thanks Sam.

Friendly country pub, good feed 🙂

Awesome hotel and bar, stayed over for a few days while delivering a classic car. Really friendly and hospitable, great food and nice, new and clean rooms, all set in a historic hotel. Absolutely cannot fault it and will definitely stay again. 10 out of 10

Had a great night, meal & barmaid was awesome, Staff great. Great hotel will be back.

We stayed here purely on the reviews and they were right! Sam, staff and the locals were a great bunch. The rooms were fantastic - first time I've ever slept in a 4 poster bed and it was soooooo comfortable. Only 15 mins away from riverstone kitchen and castle. Thanks Sam, we'll be back!

Great little pub hidden behind the dairy factor heaps of character built in 1916. Fantastic food. Great staff. clean accommodation
