Easy to miss the place if you aren't going at a crawl and keeping an eye out. But once you're there it really is a nostalgic done up kiwi batch/cottage feel. Enough space to park 2, maybe 3 cars up the drive. House is a little smaller than expected from images but cosy all the same. Especially with the fire which kept the whole place warm all night.
The toilets arent designed for bigger people, but thankfully not an issue for the little kids. And with families - very useful to have 2. We were lucky to find this place which had a bedding/room arrangement that would work for 7 of us (3 adults who needed their own rooms).
We had some difficulty trying to put the playstation together as it was all disconnected, only to find we couldnt get it working. The one game the kids wanted to play unfortunately was cracked. I promise we didnt break it otherwise I would be the first to front up! There was a little tree playhouse outside and dart board in back room (supervision required for the little ones) and a few board games etc. So enough to keep them distracted at key times. Though most of the time we were out so didnt really get full use of everything.
We stayed 2 nights to do some skiing/snowboarding and climbing. It was honestly so handy to have the drying room. Best idea ever. Though I could have done without the spiders.
The kitchen bar setup was so handy as we needed the extra seats and workspace. Was great to be able to just get dinner on as soon as we got back. If cooking isnt your thing, town is minutes away. They have famous eclairs which are huge.
Everyone loved the hot tub. So appreciative that this was set up ready for us to use. Perfect after a day on the snow.
We stayed through the Monday so did put out trash and recycling. But it wasnt until I saw the neighbours bags that i realised they needed to be in the council pink bags. Thankfully I found them. Most things are provided just the odd thing we made do without and it didnt impact our stay. Overall we enjoyed our stay, the location really is good. Bed sheets and towels really clean and fresh.
Advice is that if you are OCD this isnt the place for you. But for most families who are used to baches and do a lot of sporty outdoors activities, this is the perfect setup.
