Gorgeous location! The cottage is directly behind the main Rataview building so unfortunately some views are blocked by that building. The cottage is beautiful and clean with a much appreciated full kitchen. We would gladly stay here again. One note, please confirm with the host that the hot water issue has been fixed. There was only a drizzle of warm water coming through the pipes, not enough for washing dishes properly or taking a shower. We messaged Kirsty about the problem and she gave us permission to use the shower in Rataview since no one was staying there at the time. Rataview is an awesome venue for a large family or several couples needing a stunning place to stay as the entire front is all glass that overlooks the water. We enjoyed a great meal at The Pancake Cafe down the road about a 15 minute drive and walked directly across the street to the short trail to view the pancake formations along the beach. Stunning! Great time and memories!
