We booked this place very last minute for a spontaneous East Cape roadtrip as there was nowhere else around that was dog friendly. And we are so glad we booked with Stan and Teresa. We were welcomed with the lounge toasty warm with the fire blazing, had a hot chocolate and settled in for a cozy night. In the morning we got a tour of the goldfish farm by Stan which was really interesting, checked out the stunning views from the deck, and our dog played with their lovely labrador Xena. Then we headed off, exploring the abandoned freezing works on our way out of town. Would have happily stayed another night if time allowed.
