Richard, Fumiko and family were the perfect hosts- friendly, welcoming, solicitous of our comfort yet allowing us space and privacy to enjoy the cottage and environs. The cottage was superbly set up - everything we needed was available and enhanced by lovely touches such as fresh flowers, garden produce and preserves. The little wood fire made the place cozy on colder evenings.
Rangihaeata was a great central location for all the lovely walks, beaches and other places to explore in Golden Bay. We stayed for a month at Pukeko Cottage and were never struggling to find things to do. We carry very fond memories of our time there and Richard and Fumiko’s many kindnesses.
