Short stay
Property as advertised, great location. Pretty basic hut, light powered by batteries, no mains power or running water. Take your own camping supplies. Owner changed our dates at our request. This is a great location if you want to be off the grid, the shingle road is in an excellent condition.

Great break away from it all.
Really enjoyed our time here. The hut was very clean and better equipped than we were expecting from the details. It had the all important insect screens on the window and door which meant when we were inside we didn’t have to worry about sandflies which made it very pleasant. We took stuff we didn’t need as there were pillows, pots and pans, a kettle and a decent array of utensils there was a cooker but no gas so it would pay to bring your own. The shower was good, it was over a bathtub which you couldn’t use it as a bath as water and gas are limited. However there were plenty of river pools and streams if you wanted a soak. We didn’t need to use the fire but there was plenty of firewood matches etc . We walked, fished and read. It was v peaceful. There is no internet or phone coverage until you drive the 20 km into Ahura but that suited us perfectly. We took our dog who had a wonderful time. The property was fully fenced. We had the full gambit of weather pouring rain ,high winds and glorious sunshine so a true West coast holiday.
