Such a gorgeous spot, the view was absolutely amazing! The cottage had everything we needed, was very private and the bed was like sleeping on a cloud. Hosts were very accommodating, we were able to check out a bit later so we could enjoy our stay a bit longer before catching our flight. Did the Karekare hike at the end of the road, scenery was breathtaking. We will be back!
