We had a lovely stay at this beautiful home. Lovely spacious clean home with everything that you need. There is a separate area on the ground floor which made it seem even more spacious, and great for a family with smaller children to stay separate from the main living area for a quiet space. Lovely big lawn for playing Kubb or backyard cricket, beautiful gardens to admire with a trampoline for the children. Close to the beach which was another bonus. Barbecue weather during our stay, perfect table setting and a beautiful big barbecue to use. Paul and Catherine were wonderful hosts and communication was superb.
Anjie Rudge
Our family loved staying at this property. Enough bedrooms, bathrooms and two lounges to accommodate 10 adults and 2 children comfortably. Awesome jetty and boat ramp 2 mins away
Aimee Miller
Fantastic communication with the owners. The house was beautifully decorated. The kayaks and ping pong table were a hit. Luscious gardens to enjoy while cooking the bbq. This is a must stay house on your list for a Marlborough Sounds getaway.
