Great location, great hosts, great home. Honestly the wildlife here was better than at pūkaha Mt Bruce 😁. Ken was full of ideas about local activities we could do, and he knows all the best spots to swim in the river! The home was set up to be lived in - everything we needed to cook, including herbs and spices which was a nice touch. We went with a toddler and there was even a separate area to sleep, so we were very comfortable.
The house is separate and reasonably close to the hosts house, but it felt private enough, and close enough to enjoy their company too.
