The loft is clean and spacious with lovely rural views from the windows. It’s a good choice if you are looking to self cater and take Sonia’s advice and shop at Hokitika before you arrive. It’s 30-50km to the glaciers so a bit of driving to do on top of your walks, but a lovely quiet retreat to return to. Like many places in NZ, there’s no insect screens, probably only a problem during warm weather when you want windows open- mostly moths that we had a problem with here.
