Choice of options

This is a nice countryside bach with options for those who want to stay in the region. It is not too far from Waipukurai for supplies but nice and quiet. There are sleeping options available which is useful if you have some family coming and going during your stay.. Nice flat outside area for kids to play games. Seems to have everything you need for an extended stay, though we only had 2 nights

A Quiet Retreat

This is an ideal retreat for those wanting relaxation away from it all due to it's remote location. Everything we required was provided. We didn't get to meet the host Jo, although she kept in touch to ensure we were comfortable, especially with the impending storms.

Beatiful place, conveniently isolated, plenty of room for a big family.

Booking coordinations were really smooth although we requested it with very short notice (thank you Jo!). Having 4 children of a wide range of ages we can say the cottage is very well sorted and all info and tips provided by Jo were very useful. The cottage is beautiful and very warm/cosy. The area (and views) is wonderful. Kids enjoyed it very much. You get both a nice, isolated retreat and at the same time a place from where you can drive to different areas in Hawkes Bay if you feel like it.
