Perfect location

A stunning location and comfortable house. Perfect for our family get together. There was no communication from our hosts prior to arrival. The house was freezing cold on arrival. It took a number of hours to warm up spoiling our first night. Once warmed we were very comfortable. Perhaps the heat pump could be times to turn on one hour before arrival

Beautiful views and well equipped house

The property was perfect for our stay. Would recommend to others particularly groups. Great access to the Catlins and a home away from home. The owners greeted us on arrival and communication was good throughout the booking process. Many thanks
