Remote and beautiful
Rustic style cottage, nestled in the forest far away from anything. We loved the private tracks and the kids loved running around the beautiful forest. A long drive in, so do your shopping before you go! So clean, and loved cooking on the coal range.

A lovely, quiet cottage in the bush
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The house is nicely set up and has everything you need for an off-grid stay. Great view, private and sooooo quiet!

Remote cottage for bird watching, star gazing within reasonable distance to Golden Bay coast
Overall our experience here was quite positive but should emphasize this cottage is quite remote, approx. 15 min drive on narrow windy gravel road (we had a lot of rain and it was fine). But when you're there you feel like you're in the national park, no sign of another person, totally dark sky, LOTS of birds including the resident sneaky Weka prowling around for snacks. Kitchen was functional with good gas double burner, no oven but a classic wood burning stove with kindling which we used to cook one rainy night for fun. Bathroom brand new and nice, beds/pillows left something to be desired, had to look for sheets and towels but there were plenty. Could use a good dusting/cobweb removal. This is off grid living - solar was totally up to the task for hot water for 3 people on several cloudy/rainy days. Our favorite time was coming back after a day exploring and sitting on the deck watching the sunset over mountains, birds singing and feeding in the garden. If you're not a high-maintenance traveler this is a lovely spot.
