We lost track of time here and really enjoyed watching the bird life outside the cottage. Star and Elon Musk’s satellite gazing at night was just delightful, with little light pollution. Toni and her partner welcomed us warmly, with a lovely bar of chocolate too! We felt very undisturbed throughout our stay but felt we could approach the hosts if needed. This was very important to us. The privacy was a treat. The location is so beautifully raw and feels like you’re in the middle of the bush (though town is close by), so at least in summer, you’ll need plenty of bug spray (perhaps especially if you’re not Kiwi - they love us non locals!) As a result of its lovely site location and rustic style, the bach is not suitable for those with mobility issues. We loved our stay and hope to be back!
