We stayed in a beautiful two bedroom apartment which had a fantastic modern kitchen with everything we needed to cook a nice meal. The high ceilings and gas fire made the living room a really lovely place to sit and have a wine and read when it was raining outside. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space in the apartment. There was also a lovely outdoor eating area which I think would be great in warmer weather.

We enjoyed being there so much we asked if we could extend our stay. Sadly, they were booked so we were unable to. However, due to how much we enjoyed our time there, we are hoping to come back next year and stay again. The cottage is so comfortable that we cancelled our dinner reservations and grabbed food at the local grocery and ate in both nights. With the ocean on one side, mtns on the other, why would you want to be anywhere else? Extremely well equipped with everything you could need. Comfortable, relaxing, and beautiful setting all rolled up in one. Thank you for all the special touches included in your cottage. Our favorite place in NZ so far.

We loved it here! Just outside the center of Kaikoura, only 5 minutes from the whale watch. A beautiful garden and a perfect place to relax. There’s even a guest herb garden that we made use of. Jen, thank you for everything, including your great tips for the drive from Kaikoura to Richmond!

A really well stocked holiday home, they have thought of everything for you. Plenty of crockery and glassware, outdoor furniture was fantastic. Front deck for morning sun, back deck for evening sun, just perfect. Views were exceptional. House is on a hill, so was great to soak in all the Kaikoura scenery. The cleanliness of the property was also much appreciated.
