A fabulous place to stay with great sea views and bird song all around. We even saw 2 kiwi in the front garden on our last night.
The use of the car is a great help as the house is some distance from Oban.
People on Stewart Island are super friendly and the pub and Four Square great community centres.
If you go to Stewart Island you must go to Ulva Island. You can take the Ulva Island ferry and walk around the island yourself in quietness - for a small cost of $20 return on the ferry.
Highly recommended.
