“Lovely cosy fire”
Was just looking for a simple room, but chanced upon a place with breakfast and an awesome restaurant. The open fire gave a very cosy alpine lodge feel. Very impressed. Great staff too.

We loved the lounge / common area. Being able to watch TV with a cup of tea or coffee when ever was awesome. Good range of books, board games and a pool table too. Breakfast was outstanding, very impressed that it was included in our stay - open fire place during breakfast was wonderful.

The staff were lovely, and the accommodation is within walking distance of Ōpuke. The food at the restaurant was amazing, and the fireplace created such a beautiful, cosy atmosphere. We stayed during the off-peak season, but could easily see how busy and popular this place would be during ski season.
