Plus
- the house is very spacious and has a great view of the Tokanui valley
- central location to visit many places including Catlins, Curio Bay Area including the most southern part of NZ South Island, Invercargill, Bluff
- good mobile reception so whether there is WiFi or not, does not bother us, we just used our own data. Our son can even do his online classes
- well equipped kitchen with dishwasher. Loads of firewood to warm up the living room & kitchen.
- host Rebecca is friendly and helpful, she even did our laundry.
Minus
- the bedrooms and beds can be quite cold. Has suggested to the host to put electric heater or blankets.
- nearest commercial supermarket is Invercargill (40min drive), which is fine for us as we had planned to visit Invercargill. So if you plan to stay more than 1 night or not want to eat out, do your grocery before checking in or plan into your itinerary.
