Bird Paradise

Positioned for sunshine and stunning views this was a very homely comfortable stay. Hearing kiwi and ruru in the bush behind the house was a nightime treat. Lovely place thank you

Oban is the home base for exploring beautiful Stewart Island. Everyone should go to Ulva Island - it's a special place, a remote bird reserve. Plenty of day hikes in Stewart Island starting in Oban. We saw Kiwis in the late evening around Oban.
