The cabin is remote and tranquil as described in beautiful Ahipara. Al came to greet us and was friendly and approachable. The bed and linen is beautiful and comfortable. Unfortunately due to the unforeseen weather events pounding the country we lost power and hot water in the shower during our stay so made the decision to leave early due to same. We took our dog with us which was most appreciated however there was some dogs appear intermittently at the cabin and give our pooch a wee rark up! Overall it is a lovely isolated spot to enjoy the swell and wind down. Thanks for your understanding of our situation
