This river view cottage is our favorite NZ place. Everything was clean and homey. Carpeting on the floors helped keep us warm along with the wood stove and electric bed cover. Wonderful bedding and a comfortable mattress. It couldn’t have been better! The hosts Mary and Fraser went out of their way to accommodate us. Fraser offered to transport us across the river for a hike. Mary baked a loaf of bread for us and decorated our dining table with fresh flowers! These people are amazing, with wonderful Kiwi warmth and hospitality.
