What a marvelous place to stay. We stayed 2 nights and could have done longer.Our only neighbours were some sheep . The hut was just amazing and the time and thought put into is just wonderful. Our dogs were fine and there is a nice wee walk you can take them on and a seat at the end to sit and watch the birds fly by lol.The views were absolutely amazing!!!.I cant wait to go back.Thank you Maggie and Dave for such a lovely, thought out little place of heaven.
A well-loved and quirky cottage with stunning views and lots of unexpected extras. The gated verandah let the dogs relax with us easily.Definitely a steep drive up - hence the 4WD, but well worth the effort. Will definitely be back.
Amazing cottage tucked away from the world. Getting back to nature is how my partner describes it. The native sounds, mixed with the falling rain and the fire burning was a step back in time. Will visit again. Cabin is cosy and loved the outdoor facilities
Absolutely perfect setting, loved every moment. The Far Pavilion was fabulous and would highly recommend if you just want to switch off and get away from it all. Lovely place with stunning views.
I had such a lovely stay here with my dog. We travelled to do some walking in Mt Holdsworth and this little house was perfect. It was very private, had everything I could need, and the bed was sooo comfy. My dog had her own space outside so I didnât need to worry about her overnight. Such a lovely stay - thank you :)
An ideal location for couples to get away for the weekend (or longer!) Privacy is unparalleled. The property was very clean and tidy. We enjoyed the 4WD adventure to get up the hill, as well as the open air bathroom and kitchen. Beautiful views from the balcony of the Tararua ranges. Thanks for an unforgettable stay!
Wonderfully presented and very quiet, it had everything we needed to have a break and recharge the batteries. Super friendly and helpful host. Would absolutely recommend to anyone wanting a bit of peace and quiet.
Beaut spot and friendly helpful hosts.
I will be keen to go back.
Nice proximity to the Swiss log cabin down the road for pizza. Five mins up the road to the Holdsworth Tararuas entrance, so great for day walks.
Just a fantastic small place to get away and take in the countryside a little bit. Mount Holdsworth is a quick 5 minute drive away for some great bush walks, and the gentle bleating of the nearby sheep in the afternoon was strangely mesmerizing. Great place, would go there again.
Extremely welcoming, gorgeous, secluded spot for the perfect getaway with our red heeler. Close to trails, large grassy area and loved the layout. I have fallen in love with this place and will definitely be back. And next time over a Friday so I can try the pizza nearby.
A homely little cottage with lovely mountain views that you can heat well with the wood burner - we greatly enjoyed unwinding in this private setting and daily hikes from Mt Holdsworth with our dogs in tow. Lovely relaxed property owners.
Great wee spot to zone out and chill. Love the outside (but well sheltered) kitchen - plan to come in winter too so can be out there during some beautiful tararua storm weather and have the fire roaring inside.
We had a wonderful long weekend stay at the Far Pavillion.
David and all the family were very welcoming checking us in and gave us plenty of privacy.
The property and surroundings are beautiful with everything you need provided. We loved the clear night skies, cosy wood burner and sitting out on the deck for breakfast and afternoon aperitifs!
We would love to come back again and highly recommend this property.
Hospitable, wonderful location, cozy, tidy little Bach. Loved how it was made to look old. And the simplicity of it. Hosts were very nice and super easy to deal with. Would recommend to anyone.
