Cosy cottage in the beautiful hills of Waipara.
Ben & Viv were very friendly, they have made a beautiful home & garden for themselves and the cottage is part of an outbuilding also holding their studios. We liked the simple wooden feel of the cottage - a bit like a cabin, and our 3 month old loved the neighbouring chickens!
We had a great day trip to Hanmer Springs & loved the hot springs there. And of course took advantage of a local vineyard for some wine tasting.
