House had large living space and bedrooms for our family. Hadn’t appreciated from the info how steep the drive would be, but made it work. Otherwise, great place to stay, would happily book to stay again.

Was a great place to stay for our holiday. The drive was very steep and stairs outside and inside had to be navigated with my daughter in a wheelchair but we managed. Lots of space and amazing views! A proper NZ bach feel.

The property was big enough to enjoy our own space with exceptional views. The driveway was unsuitable for low cars and not really suitable for more than 1 vehicle, it was very steep and sharp angles.
