    We liked everything: the location close to Anakiwa and teh Queen's Charlotte Track but also to Havelock for groceries and cafes. Lots of walks in the vicinity. The place is very quiet and has everything you possibly can need. The hosts are very...

    It is a very quiet and relaxing location, where your hosts Jill and Peter make you feel very welcome in their beautiful home that sits in farmland at the base of the Queen Charlotte Sound. Wonderful place to stay.

Peter and Jill
This is a spacious, cosy, self contained unit, set amongst open dairy farmland 3.5kms from Queen Charlotte Sound and 10 minutes from Kenepuru Sound. The unit is within our home, but is fully self-contained with its own double bed, kitchenette, shower, toilet, T.V. and outdoor patio and separate entrance.
You’ll love it here because of the privacy of the self-contained unit in our home. Local activities are plentiful; walking tracks such as the famous Queen Charlotte Track, canoeing, fishing, birdwatching and Marlborough's restaurants and vineyards are not too far away. Our place would suit couples, and people wanting a quiet place to rest and explore.
