Benger Garden Cafe & Accommodation

  We will be back! – Very welcoming staff, beautiful accommodation. We had a lovely stay, exploring the Clutha Gold trail, and the breakfast was the icing on the cake!

The Chalet was well appointed and very comfortable. Even though the cafe was closed at night Lee organized a delicious meal which he delivered to our chalet. Breakfast was great too and part of the tariff! Highly recommend Benger Garden Cafe and Chalet – and especially highlight the wonderful care, attention and service from Lee the owner.

We didn’t get to sit… read more outside in the cute outdoor area as we were there early in the morning, but it looked lovely with grape vines full of baby grapes hanging over the tables in the covered area.

  Absolutely magical cabin – Oh my word the Benger Cafe cabin experience was total magic . The guys have done the cabins up to such a high standard, better than some fancy hotels .… read more Lee was such an amazing host too, I really mucked him about with dates but nothing seemed too much trouble , you totally deserve the success of your obvious hard work and efforts . The cafe was also great, a stunning garden and play area for the little ones . We will be back !

  Benger Cafe long weekend – This cafe has the best assortment of cabinate food I have seen in a long time. The atmosphere is chilled, and service amazing.

The hosts are friendly and chatty, will definately come back.

  Fantastic stay – Loved our stay! Such warm friendly staff and cute beautifully appointed little chalet! Very comfortable and food was fantastic! We had dinner and breakfast, best big breakfast ever!

  Thoughtful Cafe! – Love the sausage roll which was fantastic! It was a good idea for putting it in a double-layer paper bag for keeping warm longer. People are nice too!

  Chalet is a gem!! – We had one night at the chalet, wish we could have had another but it was fully booked. This chalet is an absolute gem; everything was clean & crisp, it… read more had all the facilities of your usual motel room but that is where the comparison ends; bespoke describes it perfectly, and it was presented so beautifully and thoughtfully it felt really special. Located in a lovely garden with lily ponds and aviaries, with cooked breakfast included which we enjoyed in the delightful outdoor dining area at the cafe, a short stroll from the chalet. We also enjoyed a great evening meal here the night before. Lovely friendly hosts. And great value for money.
