Bridget has a lovely guest suite and two friendly dogs. She gave us local tips on where to go eat, drink, and stay at in NZ. Additionally her home is located in one of the darkest skies in the world, and it did not disappoint (even though we thought we would be rained out we still had about 2 hours of great viewing). About 10 min away from the blue pools hike and 5 min away from a great restaurant located next to the visitor center.
