Wine and choc provided by the host, surprise for the kids and adults. ;) thanks Elaine.

Would be great to have a dryer. ;)

The host has made good efforts to provide a homely atmosphere in a very old cottage. The beds were comfortable and had electric blankets.

This is just my personal opinion and personal preference-the house was not well heated, the toilet was practically an outside toilet and extremely cold. The bedrooms at the front were extremely cold. There were no power outlets in the bathroom. There were far too many power boards and extension cords attempting to power the various appliances in the rest of the house. The kitchen table had not been cleaned and there were still bits of food left and crumbs on the chairs at the table.

A quaint villa which brought back childhood memories of my grandparents home. The decor was very well done. Very handy to Gore where we were spending our time. Communication was great, Check in was easy and a very warm home and hostess greeted us. We couldn't have asked for more.

The house was spacious and comfortable.

The property was quaint and quirky but had everything we required to make our 4 night stay extremely comfortable. We would certainly stay again. We were able to prepare meals, do our washing and hang it on the line to dry. Heating was available for chilly nights and mornings. The location makes it a good spot to travel to larger centres and enjoy the quiet of a more rural location. The wine and chocolates were a nice touch. If you were a larger group or family the 3 bedrooms would come in handy.

Booked accommodation for staff. Communication with hosts was wonderful we were even able to extend the stay. Would recommend to anyone needing to stay in the area.

Didn't find anything we didn't like about the property or our stay.

good location for exploring The Catlins. the house was clean with a new shower room and well stocked kitchen and nice garden space at the back.

The proximity of the railway line was a bit of a shock but soo. got used to it.

we arrived a day early and it was no issue to have an extra night , very kind and helpful hosts , it was the best place we stayed we recommend the villa the treats were a wonderful touch too
