What wonderful hosts! We felt like King and Queen during our stay. Robynne and Royce are most welcoming and really do go the extra mile to make your stay a memorable one. The greeting from Frankie the Briand set the tone and what a hoot meeting the totoise! The very clean and tidy guest accommodation is a bedroom in the house. However it is located at one end with it's own bathroom and seperate toilet and you do feel like you're in a space of your own. The room is a good size and has a wonderful rural outlook and there are home made cookies and tea and coffee there for your pleasure. We were woken by birdsong in the morning and treated to a delicious breakfast of cereals, fruit, yoghurt, toast and Robynnes homemade mixed fruit jam. We opted out of the temptation of Robynnes special pancakes but will indulge next time. This was a short visit to Takaka so we will be back and the first thing we will do is book into Karstaway Haven.
