If you are looking for a quiet, clean and warm place to stay close to Masterton, this is it. Apparently Peter Jackson lives just up the road so the location speaks for itself. The rural outlook provided entertainment with the free range chickens and various sheep doing their thing. The dog Bear usually visited each day just to say hello.
The wood burner and insulation kept the place really warm and cosy. Masterton is an easy 10 minute drive away so the accommodation is central to many activities in the Wairarapa. We will hope to stay again when we return.
