“Best place we have stayed on the South Island”
The views are stunning! The comfort of the room from heated bathroom tiles, to heated towel racks and an electric blanket on the bed - made it feel so cozy! We have been travelling the South Island for a week now, and this is the best place we have stayed. Wish we spent longer here!
