Warm and dry on a rainy night
We enjoyed our stay.
It would be good to have somewhere to put a suitcase that wasn't either on the floor, or on the couch. We wanted it out of the way for the inevitable middle of the night loo trip, so it ended up on the couch. Also the only place to hang our coats was in the bathroom, and we didn't notice that till the morning, so we draped them over the stools.
The hosts were friendly and we enjoyed stay.

Awesome eco cabin
Great location with views of the Tararuas. Very tidy with all amenities of an off grid cabin. The wood burner was great during the chilly evening.

We loved this eco cabin set on a lovely country site with excellent all round views. Extremely well built and decorated inside with all the amenities we needed. David and Mirielle were so friendly and very hospitable, they couldn’t do enough to help us. Highly recommend!

Different and cosy
Cute place to stay, very comfortable bed and cabin, loved the layout, the decor, the fire, the deck and views of hills & range. Enjoyed knowing we were sleeping in something that had probably seen the world from the decks of many ships before coming to rest in a lush Clareville paddock.
