Breakfast was excellent and on time to the minute. My dinner was first class and would rate it 8.5 /ten Owner and staff friendly. Super clean room and quiet
New ZealandWe did our own breakfast so we liked that! The kitchen was well equipped but no sink other than the tiny one in the bathroom. Flyscreens on the windows a must here. Beware the sandfly. The dinner in the Tavern was very tasty that was cooked by the owner' elderly relative. She herself was very friendly, welcoming and lively.
United KingdomAlthough it is on the highway, the back rooms were quiet with lovely views of the mountains and the river. We had a great meal, the owner was friendly and the wifi brilliant
AustraliaIt was great to have the chance to repack all our belongings ready for the flight home. Very well equipped units with everything we needed to make our packed lunch and enjoy our breakfast. Shower was lovely. Beds were comfortable. Access to scenic river.

United KingdomThe room was super clean and comfortable.The owner was charming with lots of ideas about the area.
IrelandWhilst in the middle of nowhere was a good place to break up our long drive south from Able Tasman. Bed was comfy and room was clean. Nothing special but also nicer than expected given location
AustraliaClean, modern units with the pub right next door. Unique location, in the middle of glorious nature. King size bed a bonus. Shower was nice and hot.
