So often you arrive at a destination having seen a picture of it and the reality falls short of the expectation. When you arrive at Christine’s the opposite is true. The magnificent view from the Studio’s terrace on a sunny day is simply breathtaking. You could spend many happy hours just relaxing and taking in the scenery from the terrace, but that would be to miss out on what the area has to offer. Try the excellent local Thai restaurant if you can. We were surprised that so few of our North Island NZ friends knew this area well, and perhaps that is why it still has a feel of the ‘undiscovered’. Utterly charming accommodation, host and region.
