Our cabin, Kaku, surrounded by trees and birdlife, overlooked rolling green fields dotted with sheep and the surrounding hills. It was so peaceful. Within 2 minutes walk were magical forest paths lined with magnificent tree ferns, crown ferns and undisturbed vegetation. The cabin was beautifully decorated, and contained books on the area, games, a well equipped small kitchen with a barbecue on the balcony. The old house on the estate was built in the 1920s and creates a feeling of timelessness. The owners helpfully supplied local history and tourist information and were so welcoming. We would have happily stayed longer in this unique oasis of tranquility and nature and would recommend it to anyone who appreciates these special qualities.

Once the power came back on all was good. I had camping gear to make a cuppa. It was a cold night. Lovely unit. Not very sound proof. Had everything I needed. Comfortable bed. Thank you

Super comfy, warm and fully equipped room with plenty heating options, comfortable bed, very clean, and the host super nice. I accidentally mistaken and picked a wrong date, when I asked her if its ok to change it for the next day she agreed and asked me to cancel the original reservation. Unfortunately, i didn't understand that at the time and didn't cancel it. Only later as we arrived I came to realize that she lost that night as it was still booked on me. I felt horrible and offered to fully pay for that extra night. The kind hostess said she won't charge me for that, and believed me that it was an honest mistake. Later that evening she even dropped by to give us milk and muffins she have made! Lovely place, lovely hostess. Thank you!

Absolutely stunning and peaceful location, exactly the relaxing spot I was looking for. Plenty of pretty walks in the area and sea lions right on the beach below! Beach access directly in front of the place and a beautiful outdoor sitting area. The owners were the most welcoming, helpful, and sweetest people I’ve met. The facilities were great and the place was so homey. Didn’t want to leave!

    Remote and quiet location with good road access, beautiful...

    Remote and quiet location with good road access, beautiful views from the cottage, very comfortable, cozy and tastefully decorated. Everything is there for convenience, but you have to bring your own food, it was helpfully mentioned by ownwrs prior arrival. A lot of walks in the area, waterfalls etc. Books, board games, DVDs or just break from busy life - whatever taste.

    Davids deck and the view are amazing.

    Davids deck and the view are amazing. Bellbirds sining and peace and quiet. Loved Lost Gypsy caravan and coffee beside it. Great place for kids and the Adult section well worth entry fee. Cathedral caves and view from Florence hill exceptional. Lake Wilkie a treat. Papatowai has my vote for the best in the Catlins.
