We greatly enjoyed our stay in the Tui cabin overnight as we were travelling through to Hamner Springs. As soon as we arrived at the accommodation we realised we should have booked extra nights. It’s such a cool spot and there was a lot of outdoor activities to explore in the town of Murchison. The cabin and garden was ideal for our family of 6 with young kids. The kids had plenty to explore in the garden and chill in the various hammocks. We loved the addition of the brazier which we enjoyed sitting by in the evening. The only downside were the sand flys but they seem to be everywhere in the South Island where it’s warm and near water so you just have to manage them with repellent and coils.
Overall this is a cool location for families and those who like to be surrounded by nature. We hope to return one day and spend a bit more time exploring Murchison.
