Lovely cottage with a nice view and fab garden. Cottage is very clean, spacious and has everything you might need. Very clean cutlery, utensils etc.in the kitchen. I’m a neat freak and I hate old stuff you find in many Airbnb. More importantly, Liz is a very gracious and generous host. Not only did she give me pointers on what to do, she drove me to my car which I had left at the trailhead so that I wouldn’t have to do out and back hike. She went out of her way to make sure I had everything, made restaurant reservation etc. The dolphin encounter was the highlight of my 2 months in NZ so far. I had a fab time in Kaikoura and loved my stay at Liz’s cottage. Barnacle Bill’s rocks! Highly recommend it. Don’t forget to feed food scraps to Ginger, the pig! ;-)
