"Spotless room, very comfortable, well located for our purposes."

"We had such a wonderful time in Maureen's cottage. It's clean and well-equipped, and we loved exploring the river. We'd love to return one day!"

"This place is magic. You feel as one with the shoreline, perfectly nestled in the trees and views all around (both in the bedroom area and the loft). The decor is gorgeous, the record player provided much entertainment for our family of 4 and the kitchen has everything you need. The fireplace is a lovely addition, alongside the paddle boards, kayaks and hot tub (wood burning) in the front. I have never stayed in a more peaceful place. The loft has a gate that latches to ensure safety sleeping; under 5’s might not be comfortable up there though. We loved horse riding at hack n stay as well, great company and people. Book here and go riding!"

"We were looking for somewhere private and peaceful in an excellent location and that is exactly what we found. The house itself is lovely and of a high standard, everything you need is there. All in all our Parapara trip was wonderful. "

"Great base for exploring this stunning remote corner of New Zealand. "
