River Cottage is beautifully appointed with spacious living areas and plenty of very comfortable beds. The woodburner and supplied firewood were very welcome on cold days. There are plenty of thoughtful touches (fresh bread, farm milk, fresh homemade biscuits). The kitchen is very well set up with all the utensils we needed and we especially liked the full-sized mugs. The Maruia valley is a beautiful place to top it off. I would recommend River Cottage to anyone.
