The property is rustic and of it’s time , it has a likeable character and no doubt reflects the owners through all the work they have put into it. There is plenty of space, a roomy conservatory and superb views over the lake and the long one way bridge crossing it.
We liked the opportunity to fill a jug with sugar and water to attract biirds and we saw a Tui on it. We also liked the Catlins Cafe for coffee and dinner, very nice Blue Cod, and the museum.
We did not have the best of weather but still enjoyed the experience of a unique and individual property. There was plenty of information about the area and the property.
