Dawn's place is comfortable, quiet and restful. Everything that you might need is there plus extras you never knew you needed! There were flowers in vases, the fire was laid ready and there were marches next to it, ready and waiting. There were homemade shortbread biscuits in the tin next to the tea, coffee, sugar. The bed is large, comfortable and there were 2 pillows each. The shower is powerful and there were extra towels in case we needed them (we didnt). There were some great books on New Zealand which helped us plan the next part of the trip plus information on lical things to do. The kitchen is properly equipped and you can actually cook full meals in it - which makes a lovely change. About a mile from Dunedin centre, we drove in to explore...mainly because it's uphill all the way back. There's a supermarket a 2min drive away. Good for trips out on the peninsula and the railway.
