Staying at Dagmar & Tim‘s place was ideal for a day walk into Abel Tasman National Park. A car is essential to get there. The clean bedroom offers a lot of space and a really great view into the valley. It is 10 mins drive to Marahau and 20 mins to Motueka which has nice restaurants and shops. We were surprised that you had to leave the actual cottage to get to the bathroom and toilet but with the roofed walkway that was fine for us. If you like dogs, you‘ll love Nina. She is very cute.
