Dusk till dawn is a must do if you plan to stay in Blenheim. This was the highlight of our entire New Zealand trip. Photos of the view do not do it justice! From bed you have district views over cloudy bay and a vineyards. There is a short walk you can do up the hill with views over the entire district.
The bus is in itself a highlight. My partner and I had undoubtably one of the best sleeps on the whole trip. The bus is comfortable and homey with all the amenities taken care of. We cooked ourselves a meal on the gas stove garnished with fresh parsley that Lou had picked from the garden.
Lou and Sunny are the most hospitable hosts. Lou kindly ran us through all the ins and outs of the bus which is entirely off the grid. Lou lit is a fire as the sun went down.
I couldn’t recommend this place more highly.
