The reception staff were welcoming and friendly the shared kitchen was modern clean and tidy (it could have done with an extra toaster) having just the one. We were in room 312 which was a little larger than the others having a single bed in it as well but was warm and comfortable.

I really enjoyed my stay and extended it. The room was lovely, clean and in an old, beautiful, English house which feels like from a different time. The ladies who manage it were friendly and helpful. I would stay here again. The location is great for exploring the catlins with some good food options in the town.

Absolutely fantastic little gem for a couple's getaway! The location and scenery is spectacular. Loved Jack's bay so much. Very quiet and serene at night. Lots of little touches made the stay special - matching and tastefully picked out crockery and cutlery, sharp knives, very comfortable bed with quality linen. Even chip and dip with a bottle of cold bubbles on arrival! Bbq clean and with all the accoutrements - even cleaning wipes. They have thought of everything!! Thank you so much!!

This is the best motel I have stayed so far. The unit was new and super clean, fully equipped kitchen, they pay attention to many details and overall it’s just cosy. The manager through the phone was very friendly, the heater was on when we arrived late:) super affectionate cat accompanied us during the morning and amazing red sky during sunrise. Overall very peaceful and calm place:)

    Remote and quiet location with good road access, beautiful...

    Remote and quiet location with good road access, beautiful views from the cottage, very comfortable, cozy and tastefully decorated. Everything is there for convenience, but you have to bring your own food, it was helpfully mentioned by ownwrs prior arrival. A lot of walks in the area, waterfalls etc. Books, board games, DVDs or just break from busy life - whatever taste.

    Davids deck and the view are amazing.

    Davids deck and the view are amazing. Bellbirds sining and peace and quiet. Loved Lost Gypsy caravan and coffee beside it. Great place for kids and the Adult section well worth entry fee. Cathedral caves and view from Florence hill exceptional. Lake Wilkie a treat. Papatowai has my vote for the best in the Catlins.
