Wow - I can't speak highly enough about this place and Brendon and Sharon's hospitality and generosity. This is a perfect place to relax and unwind and take in the expansive mountain views. The location is just a short drive (approx. 5 mins) to Wanaka. Personally I'd much prefer to be away from the town and have views of mountains than of traffic and shops, so this place was perfect for me. All that Wanaka has to offer is very close by without having to stay in the middle of it: great shops and eateries (Big Fig, I can't wait till you open in Melbourne!) - and lots of support for all the outdoor experiences you could ever want. I did the local walk up Mt Iron for a great view as well as a day walk up Roy's Peak - ouch! A good walk up and a tough on the knees walk down, but well worth it for the incredible view. Brendon and Sharon have lots of knowledge to offer about the local area and are just such lovely, genuine people. It was a pleasure to spend some time with them in this incredible place, sharing some drinks and stories out on the balcony and enjoying the views! I hope I can get back there before too many more sunsets pass!
