We loved our stay at Mark and Amy’s after an unexpected ferry cancellation. Both of them were so friendly and hospitable, beautiful relaxing property with horses sheep, a wee old cat and some cheeky magpies. The studio is so comfortable, warm, clean, the bed is so well made and cosy. There’s a washing machine and a line too which was great for us after camping for a while. We drove up Mount Dick upon Marks recommendation and it was so beautiful. Drove to masterton for op shops, and breakfast at Wild Oats (amazing!) but if you want to cook everything you need is there too. Definitely book here if you need to unwind and explore some of Wairarapas quaint towns. Mark and Amy were beyond helpful toward our needs, even offering a night stay free when our ferry got cancelled again. Thank you for showing us such kindness!
