Lovely place, great to chill out, enjoy the fishing and kayaking, having a lovely comfy place to come back to each night. Definitely will be returning. Easy comms with owners, beautiful gardens. Dogs loved it and so did we. Thank you.

Enjoyed our stay, great location near the beach. It’s a cool Bach surrounded by beautiful gardens. Communication with the host was good, and easy to follow instructions for the property.

This property is as far North as you can drive in the Sounds and a classic kiwi batch with a wonderful garden and what is amazing location but....5 days in to our stay (2 families) the troubles started. We lost hot water due to a fault with the gas system. Though the owners were contactable being 2.5 hours from anywhere no help was able to arranged (time of year didnt help). There is a 2nd option to have hot showers in the very outdated sleepout but this too was a past its use by date gas system. With 8 people the solar system could not handle the use and was very problematic in the final days (lost power). Again owners responded but no solutions. It should be note access to the property is a challage if towing a boat (in and out). Our advice curb your expectations here as it needing some TLC but has lots of potential.
