We stayed here for 3 nights and enjoyed the place. It’s a nice property with all the basic amenities.. The place is warm and cozy, I must say. The living+dining room with kitchen is quite sprawling and outdoor deck is superb. Simon is a nice host and gives complete privacy to his guests. Very nice communication also.
few things which other visitors to be aware of and some of things which can be better are as follows :
- one has to enter the back door as you cannot take your luggages inside from the front door.
- there is no lake view from here and the fence and next house is an obstruction of the view
- bedroom is very small and can keep only one luggage
- the toilet is one side of the bedroom while living/dining room is another and it’s too narrow a space between the bed and the wall and it’s not-so-comfortable going to the toilet from that space
- We had 3 suitcases and had no option than to keep those on the floors of the living room only.
- kitchen is nice but amenities are quite basic with very few utensils which can be improved
- there’s shampoo & body-wash but. no toothpaste, shaving cream or body lotions in toilet
- please don’t forget to carry NZ power adaptor or you will be out of charge as there is no adapter/converter
Given all these, we found the pricing is slightly high as there are better locations in the village with much better view. But as a stay, it was nice and comfortable.
