This is a wonderful place to stay, warm, (we went mid winter), cosy, comfortable, extremely well equipped kitchen, there were 6 of us and there was plenty of room for the 6 of us. Lots of hot water in great showers. Lovely views across the bay. Very welcoming when we went in with wood ready for the fire, blankets on the sofas (not needed!), flowers in tiny vases and a note welcoming us.
It is steep drive at the very top turn,but manageable. Two of the bedrooms come straight off the dining/kitchen area, so any late risers may be disturbed.
Quite a walk into Raglan itself.
The Shack is great for coffee and brunch. We had a very nice dinner at Orca (recommend booking) - they accommodated a couple of dietary requirements with courtesy and kindness.
We loved this place - a great find
