"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay surrounded by blooming manuka and blissful quiet. The cabin was ideal. Two cautions: nearby hikes are on private property and incur hefty fees for each visit, and extra fees for linen are charged per person and seemed on the high side."

"Our stay at the Beeches was absolutely wonderful.

Lovely balcony’s on both sides of the house where you can enjoy a coffee and a book. There was a very kind neighbour who helped us with some car issues we were having. If you walk up the hill there is a stunning view of the mountains. Highly recommend and i will be...

"We and our friends greatly enjoyed staying in this comfortable, well-equipped chalet with lovely alpine bush views in an area we had never been to before. Beds were comfortable and the woodburner kept us warm. Enjoyed birds serenading us by day and star-watching while soaking in spa at night. Loved exploring the alpine environment."
