Everything about our stay at the Hutiwai Hideaway was great. From the peace and tranquility of a still Taranaki evening, to meeting the very inquisitive and friendly cows across the road and listening to the myriad of night-time forest sounds, this place provides a unique experience. Everything was as stated and we loved the snacks/food provided by Maxine, who we met the next day with her husband Bruce. Overall it was a pity we couldn't stay longer.
