After reading some many reviews about this property, I decided to give a go, firstly it is a long drive to get to this place, you can search the distance from Google, just beware it does feel longer than you thought, and the road is narrow. Once you get to this cottage, there are lot of bugs, spider and cockroach inside and outside of the property, fair enough, it is in the middle of bush, what do you expect. OK, the biggest thing I dislike this place, there are no curtains by the kitchen window and skyline which is almost on top of the bed, if you are struggling to sleep with lights on, good luck, I have to go to get a eye mask for my second night. I guess winter is fine, but Dunedin's sunrise is so early during summer. Anyway you get what you pay for.
