Great location, spa with a view was one of the highlights! We stayed in the Pohutukawa Room which was the smaller of the studios. Perfect for a couple who want to spend a lot of time out. A very modern space with a big comfy bed and a private bathroom. The walk over the hill into Russell is doable but we’d recommend having a car for grocery or takeaway runs. Overall a great place for a getaway over winter and I’m sure in summer also with beach access from the house!
