We had a fantastic stay here and would whole heartedly recommend it. We felt comfortable and completely at home. The house is comfortable, well equipped and not pretentious. The location is fantastic. Manapouri is magnificent and yet also not at all touristy. It is 15 mins drive from Te Anau so well placed for other activities. We did some great walks in the local area. We did not meet Shaun but felt like we did, as we had quite a few emails between us as I asked various questions. He was welcoming, helpful and responded quickly to all emails.
