Punatapu is quite simply heaven on earth. The grounds are stunning; you will hear many birds, see rabbits, goats and deer as you walk the property. There are many hikes to satisfy you-all within easy reach. Also, there are many good options of day trips from this area. The accommodations are first class. Everything you need is there, and if it’s not, Suzanne is ready to provide it for you. She has a wonderful artistic aesthetic and it shows in the details of the estate. It is a magical place, a life testament from a family who has a deep love of the land. We were sad to leave Suzanne, Ben and their adventurous Jack Russell, Polly. We highly recommend Punatapu!
