We loved our post-Christmas stay at the Old School - both for the accommodation itself and for its location. The kids loved their classroom/verandah bedrooms, playing on the piano, drawing on the blackboard, reading books in the library, watching the visiting weka, kicking balls around outside and playing badminton in the old pool. With a car, Hohonu was also a great base to explore the West Coast, and we managed to do day trips to Greymouth, Punakaiki and Hokitika before heading back along Arthur's Pass via Lake Brunner. So many memories packed into a week in beautiful surroundings - thanks for sharing your part of the world!
