This was the perfect place for our getaway from Christchurch. We stayed for 6 nights. Julie and Mark were the perfect hosts, thoughtful and obliging. The place was perfect for a couple: a nice kitchenette, a comfy bed, lovely patio with beautiful flowers. It was private but we knew that we could ask our hosts for assistance at any time. It was a perfect base to explore the Golden Bay, Takaka Hill and Kaiteriteri just a scenic drive away. We feel recharged and rested after having the best sleep and adventure-filled days. Highly recommend Kotare Muse for your Golden Bay getaway.
