We loved our stay at Kate's place. Located out of the bustle of Wanaka's centre yet still conveniently close to make a quick car trip in. The outlook from the guest's space up to the mountains and glacier is stunning. The property itself is picturesque with gardens that are obviously Kate's passion. Kate and her husband (and sidekicks Frank and Wal the dogs) made us feel very welcome in the relaxed atmosphere and we were invited to wander around the property as we chose, including to pick fruit from the small orchard. There is also a tennis court and swimming pool that are well kept. The accommodation is simple with plenty of space and very clean and comfortable. The bathroom is very big with a sizeable stand alone bath; I really enjoyed the option to use these facilities whilst taking in the gorgeous view. If you want vogue style accommodation that presents perfectly yet is without lived in character, go somewhere else; for me Kate's place is perfectly imperfect. Thanks again Kate.
