10/10 Exceptional! (1 review)
"The cottage was very nice and easily accessible. Being next to the cafe meant that there were a lot of options available. Jack and Cheryl were some of the best hosts and we loved meeting and talking about their farm animals. Would love to stay again the next time we visit New Zealand!"
