As described, very rustic but comfortable and cosy. Lots of bits and pieces available in kitchen so easy to prepare a meal, fresh eggs, bread & milk provided. Lovely outdoor area for sitting/dining but we didn’t get to use it as so busy exploring in the area. Lovely stony beach at the end of the road was a really unexpected treat, looking out to flat rock ( apparently with penguins ). Also close to Hanmer springs, kaikoura and wineries, brew moon brewing in Amberley won’t disappoint beer enthusiasts.
