Lovely location!

There's a lot to do and see in the area and this was a good base to set out from. Long, empty beaches; Pupu springs; Labyrinth rocks; waterfalls; Takaka town etc.

Lovely peaceful setting.

The owner was lovely and the setting was so private and beautiful. The rock formations were stunning and even a small cave with glow worms! Wish we had stayed longer.

Lovely B&B, the hostess is very nice and welcoming, brought us to the B&B itself, explained everything about the place to us. The B&B itself was a large, well-equipped apartment, clean, with everything you need for a few days' stay. The surrounding yard was wonderful, there is an outdoor bath in the yard. In the summer it is great to take a bath in it. A seating area in the grass above a small stream. Barbecue. We loved the place very much!
