We cannot say enough on how wonderful it was to stay at the cottage, words fail to express how much we enjoyed staying there. Liz, is an amazing host, very kind, very helpful and very approachable. This helped to make our holiday feel even more special. The cottage has all you would need, and has such a warm homely feel to it, the cleanliness was exceptional, especially the bathroom and kitchen. The garden we had to ourselves was so stunning, full of beautiful flowers and well kept.
There is so much to do in Kaikoura, and we would highly recommend you pay a visit to Poppys - to enjoy a real homemade ice-cream. Everyone in the town makes you feel so welcome and there is a genuine community spirit.
Despite the sadness of the earthquake they suffered last November everything is up and running, so don’t let that put you off making a visit to this lovely part of New Zealand. Also, there is so much more to Kaikoura than Whale Watching, so an overnight stay is not enough, you need more time to explore the area, and we are already planning our next visit.
