Carolyn's cottage is exactly as it looks in the photos - a really special little sanctuary in the bush with a few charming and quirky features. Everything you need, all in one room - a well kitted out kitchen, little hand-basin nook, open fire, lounging corner ... well thought out. Nice wrap around verandah with outdoor eating space. Great outdoor bath and shower on the back verandah - fabulous having a lovely shower (plenty of hot water) within a metre or so of the huge ferns and bush. Really easy walking distance to the Mussel Inn, and easy driving distance to all the must-see places on that side of Takaka Hill.
