THIS PLACE IS AMAZING. SERIOUSLY. If you are planning a trip to New Zealand and you are planning to visit the Catlins (which, really, you shouldn't travel to New Zealand and miss that gorgeous region), you HAVE to stay here. I've already personally recommended Melanie's place to all my family and friends, so now I'm recommending it to you, AirBNB User. Melanie's property sits atop a green mountain just outside Owaka. The view is absolutely astounding, and the location is ideal for travel to all sorts of fabulous sites in the Catlins like Nugget Point, Kaka Point, and Cannibal Bay. The sheep farm on which the accommodations are located is gorgeous, and perhaps, if you're lucky, Melanie and her husband will take you out to the fields with them to witness some of what they do daily as sheep farmers. As far as comfort, Melanie has truly thought of everything to ensure her guests are comfortable. We were so at home there that we didn't want to leave!! I can't recommend this place enough, it is by far one of my favorite AirBNB places I've stayed in. If you're considering it, go ahead and book it. You will NOT regret it.
