We had a wonderful 6 night stay at Wilson Bay. Kelly and Trev were welcoming and very generous. The house was clean and cosy, worked well for our family of 5. The kids loved swimming in the sheltered bay, fishing off the jetty and walking round to the nearby lodge for hot chocolate. Thanks for our stay!!

Great spot

Our family of 5 stayed at Trevor and Kelly's Farm recently. We had a great time. The house was cosy, the views & scenery amazing and we were lucky enough to sample some of the outdoor options that the area is known for. Overall, a great accommodation option in an awesome spot.

Wonderful Stay

Kelly and Trevor were exceptional hosts, in their little piece of paradise. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome, including: fresh mussels, baked goods and a ride in their boat. We would love to return, thank you...

Amazing break away to rest and recharge

The most amazing, isolated spot for a break away with boat only access. Great location for access to fishing grounds and perfect little 10 minute bush walk to barista coffee, drinks or a meal. Super friendly host Kellie who made the stay most enjoyable on their farm, with access to farm tracks for walks and plenty of boating in the sounds.

Great stay in a great place!

Kelly and Trevor are absolutely fantastic, as was our entire stay. The house is spacious, well equipped, and comfortable with excellent views. It really feels like home.We really enjoyed getting out for walks, fishing, diving, and just generally spending time there. There's a lodge a short walk down the bay if you want to go out as well. Good wifi, a pool table, books, and magazines in the house for evenings, and lots to do.It is truly unique and well worth visiting.

Idyllic place to take time out

We loved staying at this Lockwood Bach and experiencing life in the Sounds. Trevor and Kelly were very welcoming and helpful. The house was super-clean and had everything we needed. We went on several half day walks, had successful fishing trips, and swam in the bay. A fabulous place to get away from everyday life!

Superb Location

A wonderful stay for our family consisting of 3 couples. Loved the boat-access only location and the fact that it is central to all of the Pelorus Sound. Great walking options and even a resort bar/restaurant 10 mins walk away. Very private and quiet. Particularly loved the view from the house, the log burner in the evenings and, most of all, the pool table! That was a huge source of fun for us all. Interesting to be on a working farm - a great Kiwi experience all around. Highly recommend this charming spot. Thanks Kelly and Trevor for everything!

Absolutely perfect week in Pelorus

Kelly and Trevor made our week absolutely perfect, starting from the boat pick-up in Elie Bay, to the buckets of fresh mussels, to the use of the boat to do some fishing (lots of blue cod - delicious!) to the great chats we had. Cannot recommend this "home from home" too highly. Also finally got to teach the kids to play pool properly! And having Te Rawa resort a short walk away meant great options for drinks, or meals if we didn't feel like cooking. We'll be back!!

excellent cottage

We spent a very pleasant 5 days in Wilsons Bay in April. The house is comfortable and warm with a great view, and the hosts are very helpful and friendly. There are great 2 to 3+ hour walks on the door step, over to Miro Bay or around the peninsula, partly on the farm or in the bush. If you are cooking for yourself, you will need to bring even the basics eg oil teabags etc. 5 minutes walk away is Te Rawa Lodge where you can eat, except in winter, too. The working farm aspect of it is another great dimension. The morning and night time generator power hours are all you need, but if the weather is bad there is not really enough light inside by day to read, for example. A good head torch is a must.of course. Wonderful spot - highly recommend.

The lighting was an issue unfortunately because we had an unusual dry spell, which meant our hydro lighting was not up and running. After the latest lot of rain it is now working again.

Great location, relaxed and friendly hosts

Thanks very much to our hosts, we stayed for 3 nights to take in some of the incredible scenery and fishing that Pelorus sound has to offer. The property was perfect, and the hospitality friendly and relaxed. We're looking forward to coming again in the future.
