This was my third visit so I knew what to expect and I wasn`t disappointed. As always, Jan was a very friendly host and nothing was too much bother. For a fisherman the location is superb with a choice of rivers within an hours drive and the cottage is ideal to come back to after a day on the water. The amenities are very clean, comfortable and relaxing with no immediate intrusions other than the birds and the sheep - perfect! Booking and communication was smooth and Jan was on hand if needed. Not that we had any issues, but it does give peace of mind. For anyone who enjoys the pull of nature through fishing, walking, bird watching etc, the cottage and its location are perfect, Your choice to watch TV, use the internet or be "electronics free" and just appreciate the peace, quiet and beauty of the South Island
