Hilltop House is adeptly named as it is a pretty wee house on top of a hill that over looks the majestic and magickal Papatowai bay and the Tahakopa Valley. The mist lingers between the dips and vales while Kererū and Piwakawaka flitter and soar about amongst the native bush. The views are spectacular. The house is warm and inviting with mostly wooden floors, a fire place, clawed bath and Two bathrooms. There is enough space to spread out. Two of the beds felt like sleeping on clouds. Yet the tv and DVD set ups are outdated with one making a loud noise but I didn't go there to watch tv. It was the destination that is the draw card. One of my most favourite places in all of Aotearoa. Hilltop House is Dog friendly too 🐶
