Incredible Location
We had a wonderful time at Wendy’s place! The drive over was a bit curly at times, but the scenery can’t be beat and the cute little cabin home was just what we were after. Would definitely stay again.

Charming wee cabin with all modern amenities
I cycled there from Torea Saddie on the Queen Charlotte Track & it was so worth the effort. I loved the old style rural Marlborough Sounds cottage feel to the property.

A lovely getaway
Wendy greeted us upon arrival and showed us to the cabin. She gave us the run down of what to know and we then saw her intermittently throughout our stay - she was a lovely host. The cabin was all that we needed for 4 nights and we will be recommending the cabin to others ((:
