Don and Margaret are lovely hosts. Very friendly but respectful of your privacy.
The studio is very comfortable with a fab wee deck. The setting at the base of their beautiful garden is lovely. You can even glimpse the sea from the deck. I spent many happy, relaxed hours reading and eating on the deck.
The beach is 2 minutes walk from the studio. Great proximity to many great beaches and only 8 minutes drive into Takaka town.
While there’s no indoor kitchen in the studio there’s an electric frying pan, toastie maker and BBQ.
The bathroom is modern with excellent towels provided.
I loved my stay here and intend to return.
