The Gatekeepers Cottage was one of our favorite stays in New Zealand. Both the space and hosts are truly special. From the private patio to the walking track right out your back door you won’t find a more relaxing and beautiful location to enjoy Akaroa. This is a big property so Peter and Paula are always hard at work making it better yet are available for questions and local advice. This stay deserves several nights as there is much to see and enjoy in the area.
