A lovely place to stay. Well equipped and with a lovely bath - something some may be missing if travelling. We enjoyed lovely meal ( not cheap) at the Pitcher and also beer outside there. There are other places to eat - a choice in a beautiful village is great bonus. However the kitchen is well equipped to cook - good NW supermarket in Alexàndra. Ophir is only 2km from rail trail and bike hire near by so perfect to cycle part of trail if you don't want to do all. Head east for best views. A 40 km ish round trip with bit of a climb takes you to great scenery and also cafe stop for lunch. Really recommend and Russell was great host. Perfect place to enjoy this special part of central Otago!
