Property was amazing it is far out but once you get there it is so peaceful. Has some animals you can pet and a lovely garden to walk around and explore
Amazing location, super-friendly host, clean and comfortable facilities, good value for money - all round a great venue for a quiet getaway. Also, being blessed with the company of some of the friendliest cats ever!
A rural peaceful location with idyllic views, but good roads to get there.
The owner was such a great host, friendly , did the laundry, friendly and very interesting to meet.
A beautiful 1 hour drive to the beach at Gore Bay
Very scenic surroundings with lovely deck and sun loungers to enjoy the view and the beautiful cats who loved us. Very peaceful. Good halfway point between Nelson and Tekapo.
the fact that it is in the middle of nowhere makes the experience especially refreshing! so peaceful and quiet. Love all the animal residents! Janine was an excellent host, she made us feel so at home! Hot tub and stargazing was simply awesome! We managed to enjoy a great barbecue out there too! will definitely stay with Janine again if we ever come back to the South Island.
