Located a short distance outside the Kaikoura township, the Te Mahuru Cottage is cozy and easily accommodated us. The cottage is well appointed with Wifi, heat pump, panel heaters and plenty of extra blankets for winter and a cupboard of board games if the weather closes in. The complimentary breakfast was much appreciated with fresh bread supplied giving us a great start to the day. The Spa nearby, was a go to relax and unwind after exploring the many walks and points of interest. Jen was a considerate host and provided a guide for local attractions. Kaikoura is a magnificent place to visitin the midst of winter, an incredible and scenic destination to be enjoyed.
