Great place to stay

We had a wonderful time at this lovely property. It's like an old fashioned kiwi bach brought fully up to date and made very comfortable with everything you could need (BYO linen). There is a great little pub/restaurant down the hill and Kaka Point is an excellent place to explore the Catlo s.
