Open the door to the old 1930s butchery and you step into a lovely light filled studio space. It’s comfortably appointed, with little touches that make the space a really enjoyable one to relax in after a day of exploring. A few things that make the space more ‘romantic’… the fireplace and the sound of the rain on the tin roof…
Behind the studio is a well equipped kitchen, and then the bathroom (with an excellent shower and a composting toilet). If you don’t feel like bathing inside, you have the option of bathing outdoors in a bath in the lovely private garden whilst looking up at the stars…
Location is rural. There are no shops within a walking distance so come prepared to cater for yourself or make a short trip to a nearby town. We found Pungarehu a great base from which to explore South Taranaki.
We loved being able to bring our dog along with us.
Jess was an excellent communicator and a fabulous host.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, would recommend and stay again.
