There are lots of great things about this place, but one highlight is the great customer service from the hosts. The shower is also very nice (water is on train water tank though, so fantastic quality rather than lengthy). Cooking facilities are fairly minimal, but it's a great opportunity to use your imagination (I made a lovely dinner for my girlfriend with just the microwave and chopping board and some tasty ingredients - there are plenty of places to eat out in Raglan anyhow).
