    Building a great old lady that was given the decor of its period. Lots of eclectic furniture and decor. Looks like a project that has potential to be successful. Host welcoming and helpful advising a great place to get food locally.

    A charming place to stay, roughly half way between Levin and Otaki. Easy to get to either to find food. Less than an hour from Wellington ferry terminals but with better weather. The shared kitchenette was cosy and had everything we needed for...
