Nigel and Pam were real lifesavers and are absolutely lovely hosts! The cottage has everything you need- and much more. If you get a chance to travel through this very interesting and beautiful part of NZ- staying at this cottage is a must! Very clean and tidy, loads of helpful tips and education about birdlife and history and interesting things to do. Superb location. Definitely wish we could have stayed longer. Planning to come back! Thanks again Nigel and Pam!
