Out of the tourist area of Kaikoura but perfectly close enough to get to the activities there. Comfortable private accommodation, facing impressive snow-covered mountains, with external access to private bathroom and shower. Nice touch to provide guests with dressing gowns. Off-street parking right outside your private door, if you want it, but plenty of other parking too. The occasional train that comes by is no intrusion. Very attractive beach over the road with banded dotterels breeding but currently out of bounds, unfortunately (no fault of the hosts)
