We had a wonderful time at Possum's End. Shaun and Helen were wonderful hosts, very attentive and kind. The cottage has spectacular views right out the front windows and 360 degree ones a short rather steep hike up the hill behind it.
The quiet was punctuated by birdsong from morning to night, and watching the birds at the feeder and in the regenerating bush was a delight. The area is great, too, with loads of great hikes and sights on the Peninsula and around Dunedin and over to Port Chalmers and Aramoana.
