If you are planning a visit to the South Island of New Zealand and want some place to stay that is right out of town but still conveniently located than this is it. You have a gorgeous view and the perfect studio that has everything you would need. The hosts Frank and Astride are so friendly and helpful but will also give you your space. Everything was clean and tidy and me and my husband felt completely comfortable. They have a good size bathroom and a tiny but fully equipped kitchen. You can easily make home cooked meals if you’d want with no problem. We visited during the beginning of September and the heated floors made it so we never felt cold, even coming from the tropical climate of Hawaii. They have central heat or ac for whatever season you may be visiting.
