Indy's place is a little slice of heaven!
Situated 5 min drive from Wanaka, you get to choose whether you want to go into the city or have an easy day away from the buzz. There's plenty of animals around the farm to hang out with in case you're tired of people.
Within an hour drive you can go thru so many different sceneries, it's absolutely breathtaking.
You need a car to stay at this place tho, I don't think it's comfortable doing it any other way.
But with the slight remoteness comes absolute peace and quiet, and close to no light pollution - the night sky is insane.
Thank you Indy for your hospitality and recommendations, I hope one day we'll come back to South Island!
