This is a gorgeous, quaint little place perfect for a family to get away from the hustle and bustle of life. It has a warmth to it that makes you feel right at home, it’s cosy and comfortable, and the fire place does a brilliant job of keeping the whole house warm if you get it going early. We didn’t need to bring our own entertainment as it has so much there already, including lots of books, games, dvds and magazines to keep everyone entertained. Comfy beds, big lounge suites to lay on while reading in front of the fire, a good size yard to run around in, sounds of birds and the sunrise over the mountains. The town is very peaceful and a great place to base yourself to see the area (Stavely forest walks, Mt Somers track, Mt Sunday LOTR site seeing, beautiful lakes Camp and Clearwater, close to Methven for food and shops, views of the spectacular mountain ranges around Mt Hutt). And very affordable. Thanks for having us, we’ll definitely recommend your place to others.
