Holiday Homes in Old Ghost Road

"We arrived later than planned, after contacting reception via intercom, advised which was our room and given code for keysafe, found that ( in the dark on adjacent wall, lighting not good but had phone torch ) and after finding room ( site not that well lit ) we opened the door by key only to find it already occupied !!! Key also rather alarmingly fitted a neighbouring room ( with a very similar room name so in the dark the confusion by the occupier in our room could be forgiven ) and as that other room was set up ready we just moved in. Once inside the room was clean, pleasant etc but not without mosquitoes who fed on us well that night !! "

"Pretty, short walking loop trail at the end of the road, by the river. Dozens of large eels ("tuna", in Maori) in the little stream under the riad, next to the motel. They come quickly if you have bits of meat to trow in for them to eat. No catching/fishing, though!"

"Almost everything about this place was great - i even had a decent view of the mountains over the fence through my back sliding door which i liked to keep open for the fresh late summer air when in the room. I barely heard any noise from people in other rooms, including no tv noise! The primary downside was the unsupportive mattress which was a common experience for me throughout NZ, leading to poor sleep and aggravated bad back, even with all the wonderful pillows. It also made it hard to ignore the sounds of very large trucks driving by or stopping out front, throughout the night. I ended up getting a white noise app and playing it loudly to help drown that out. I would consider ataying again, dependent on room location and probably not for multiple nights."

"Thank you for having us to stay for two wonderful nights at Riverview Cottage. The staff were AMAZING right throughout our stay--friendly, efficient, calm, kind & helpful, and great facilities. Could have stayed forever. AWESOME!!!"

"Welcomed with a bottle of wine and fresh bread and cheese..also fruit in fruit bowl.An enjoyable 3 nights for 4 ..(2 of whom were o/seas guests.)Pillows could do with updating as of poor quality .An enjoyable time in a lovely setting and a great base for seeing the West Coast."

"Wonderful place with excellent personal hosting"

"Cam & Dee are truly hospitable and have created a unique comfortable experience with thoughtful details. "

"Cosy, rustic cabin, cleverly planted so it feels like your own little hideaway, and couldn't be closer to the beach - spent many hours sitting on the suntrap deck and watching the waves. Quiet and private, with everything you need (extra fridge/freezer a bonus). Grounds are beautifully maintained and staff are friendly and helpful. Lovely break away."

"Fantastic house right on the beach front.Clean & tidy and had everthing we needed.Great location to explore the area from.We'll be back"
