Really EXCELLENT value considering it is a fully self contained cottage with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We slept really well! The cottage was warm, cosy, comfortable and pretty clean.
Good WiFi once connected and over the road from the Four Square - little bit of road noise in the morning but minimal. Great location for the Oparara Basin and Heaphy Track.
Julia was quick to communicate and check in was easy with the lockbox.
Plenty of hot water to enjoy a lovely bath but I didn’t use the outside tub as there is also a lodge next door so it didn’t feel as private as I was expecting (I don’t think their windows have a view of the tub though). Although we loved the vintage-ness, a few of the appliances are needing an upgrade.
Would definitely stay again if I came back to Karamea.
