Comfortable bed. Separate from the main house, felt welcome. Our host was present but not in our space.

Greg New Zealand

Owner very friendly. Extremely comfortable bed and pillows. Great access. Great advise to have meals.

Nicola Australia

We were upgraded to the Sunrise suite so the rating is based on that room which was so peaceful and looking out to a beautiful garden

Carolinewood1 New Zealand

Location was great, room was comfortable, quiet and private. We were upgraded to another room which was lovely.

Katie New Zealand

Location was walking distance to the town centre for meals

Marcia New Zealand

We enjoyed our stay here .. it was very comfortable and the room had everything we needed. We were lucky enough to be upgraded to a bigger room which we appreciated and the shops were literally just around the corner.

Helen Australia

Very good location, convenient for walking to the township and shops, catching the Farewell Spit tour, and taking walks along the beach and river. Comfortable beds, congenial host.

Carla New Zealand

Great location right on the beach wee township 1 minute walk around the corner quiet, had everything we needed

Denise Abkhazia, ​Georgia

Really a sink for dishes would be great (but did explain no sink in advert)

Rod New Zealand

This unit is directly across the road from the beach, and around the corner from the village, so a great location. Daniel, our host, bought BBQs after we asked if there was one available, and always went the second mile.

  • Hi, what is the difference between the sunrise and blue moon suites? Thank you
    Hi. The SS is a bit more modern looking than the Bm plus the SS has a nice view of the garden with private deck. You can see most of that in the pics. Given the choice most people like the SS. It would be my choice.

  • Do you have parking on site and what does that cost per night.
    Plenty of parking at no charge

  • Hi - I have a booking with you from April 19 - 23 which I'm really looking forward to! I'm attending the weaving course with Nicola Basham. She suggested I ask if Shelley will be heading to Takaka on Friday 23rd and if I can get a lift for the bus? Does that sound possible? Many thanks, Fiona
    Hi Fiona. Not sure about Shelley giving you a ride. She lives at ParaPara at this time and not sure where she will be when you're around. I'm sure something can be figured out.
