This is a truly beautiful house, painstakingly renovated and decorated to a high standard. It is located in a tranquil, completely private setting and we felt relaxed immediately upon arriving. We loved the outside bath and our toddler was delighted by the cows in the neighbouring paddock! The owners fixed the fridge speedily, provided a high chair when we asked and posted back a dress I’d left behind. Unfortunately the cafe was closed when we stayed but Cape Palliser is stunning, the Pinnacles are a must see and the food and drink in Martinborough is second to none. We recommend Moy Hall for lunch. We can’t wait to return to Pirinoa. A fabulous retreat.
