Strathmore Bakehouse B&B

Step back in time at Strathmore Bakehouse B&B — a beautifully restored historic cottage nestled at the foot of the Rock and Pillar Range. Once the original bakehouse supplying bread to the workers who built the Central Otago railway, this charming spot now offers a peaceful country escape just minutes from Middlemarch and the Otago Central Rail Trail.

The cottage features two cosy queen bedrooms with a shared bathroom, making it perfect for couples or small groups. The larger room includes a comfortable seating area, table and chairs, tea and coffee making facilities, and a small fridge. A simple continental breakfast is included to start your day right.

Surrounded by sheep paddocks and a spacious garden, guests are welcome to explore the grounds and soak in the tranquillity of the Central Otago landscape. Whether you arrive by car, bike, or on foot, the Bakehouse is just a short hop from Middlemarch – 2 minutes by car, 5 minutes by bike, or a scenic 15–20 minute walk.
