Host review score
Peter and Jill
This is a spacious, cosy, self contained unit, set amongst open dairy farmland 3.5kms from Queen Charlotte Sound and 10 minutes from Kenepuru Sound. The unit is within our home, but is fully self-contained with its own double bed, kitchenette, shower, toilet, T.V. and outdoor patio and separate entrance.
You’ll love it here because of the privacy of the self-contained unit in our home. Local activities are plentiful; walking tracks such as the famous Queen Charlotte Track, canoeing, fishing, birdwatching and Marlborough's restaurants and vineyards are not too far away. Our place would suit couples, and people wanting a quiet place to rest and explore.
