this place was gorgeous and did not disappoint! the cottage is on a beautiful piece of land with fruit trees and native NZ bush all around. lots of birds were singing and we had an amazing view from our window. Richard was very accommodating and even brought over some milk to go with our coffee and tea. he had great local tips as well. this place was incredible!!! it goes without saying but i'll say it anyway, we'd love to stay here again someday!
