The cottage is about 100 metres from our home, nestled below a patch of beech forest and with great views up the Baton valley and across to the Kahurangi mountains. It is sometimes quite difficult to sleep through the dawn chorus performed by the Bellbirds and Tuis that live in the bush.
The cottage is fully self contained, with 2 bedrooms comfortably sleeping 2 couples or a family group. There is a queen bed in one bedroom and a queen and a single bed in the second bedroom
The spacious living, dining and kitchen area is open plan. There is a large deck in front of the chalet for dining, just lazing in the sun, reading, or taking in the stunning views. For winter stays the pot belly stove keeps the chalet warm and cozy.
Cooking facilities include an electric oven, a gas hob, a microwave, a toaster and an electric jug, as well as a gas fired barbeque on the deck. There is a fridge and a freezer. As the nearest store is 16 km away at Tapawera, it is necessary to bring food if you want to do your own cooking. An evening meal can be provided in our home if required but please request when making your booking.
Internet is included, although we do not have unlimited GBs!
Linen is provided.
Coffee, tea (and even home grown walnuts!) are provided. We also invite our guests to share our fresh seasonal organic vegetables and fruit from our gardens.
