A great place to cook up some good food in great company. Clean up is a whizz with washing liquid provided. There’s also a filtered water tap handy to help you keep hydrated and a compost bin that we use for gardening.
Laundry room
Two coin-operated commercial washing machines are available. A laundry line with pegs is available to hang washing outside –for the love of crisp, sun-kissed washing.
“This place is one of the special hidden treasures of NZ. Brilliant sunrise, hospitality was first class and the total glamping experience was top shelf.
Can’t wait to go back.”
