Loved the cabin. It had everything we needed. The room with the double bed could have been a bit larger so that one could get round the bed but otherwise no complaints whatsoever. Brilliant!!

A wonderful stay for a week. A very reasonable price for a fantastic visit. Warm and helpful staff, calm and nicely laid out grounds. Perfectly located at the centre of New Zealand's founding national sites and history (an easy walk to the Inlet with Mission Station, with its store, cafe, and a nearby pub/restaurant on the water). Altogether charming and comfortable!
