A dog's eye view and a review too!


My name is Rose and I'm a Tibetan Terrier and a princess.

Here I am :



I had a weekend away recently with the folks. We went to Birkdale, near Southport. For those not familiar with this neck of the woods, going north from Liverpool in the North West you hit Crosby, then Formby, Birkdale and Southport – all on the coast. The main reason for our trip was to introduce me to Macie who lives with Tim, Cheryl and Alyce. The human lot wanted us to get on so that we could have regular beach holidays – which I love. To be on the safe side the folks booked us into a bnb that welcomed me!

I had the best time ever and made two more friends called Leroy and Ziva, here they are :



For those who are fans of NCIS and wondering - you'd be right, Leroy after Gibbs and Ziva after Ziva!

Anyway I think it's time I handed over to my Mum who'll bring you up to speed with everything else.

Welcome to Aotearoa Southport – “A slice of New Zealand in the heart of Southport”. From booking our stay to arrival I could not speak more highly. I loved the fact that Denise interviewed me about Rose and expected to see her vac records – my kinda gal. We were made so welcome by Denise and Vince.

If you want a successful business, whatever it might be then attention to detail gets you noticed.

First of all Aotearoa is a beautiful home and although the website has great photos it's better still in real life. You know how when you check into your room the posher places give you a small tin of biscuits with your coffee and tea making facilities. Rose got her own box of dog biscuits. At Aotearoa no instant coffee – a small cafetiĆ©re and sachets of ground coffee.

Before we went on our way after checking in we were asked to make our choices from the Breakfast Menu. This is not your bog standard menu.

Smoky Sweet Potato Hash
Italian Baked Eggs (Oeufs en Cocotte)
Paleo Vanilla Granola
Eggs Benedict
Special Scrambled Eggs
Healthy Full English Breakfast

More about the breakfast later.

Nothing is too much trouble. It was a warm day, iced water was provided immediately and “help yourself to more when you get back”. What's not to love.

On our return we were also given a small cool bag with an ice pack and milk for the following morning. Your every need is anticipated.

See you in the morning, sleep well.
