"Despite being unwell and it raining all day we had a great time in the bus. It is beautifully decorated and quirky, something unique and different to the usual short term rental experience. It was lovely to sit and recover and watch the river flow by as we ate delicious lemonade fruit that was provided (seriously they are so good, some of the best fruit we have ever had). The kids loved the bus and unusual layout and despite not getting to use it much the grounds were also nice. Murchison as a town surprised us too, lovely cafes and nice people. The owners were very nice and communicative and obviously care about doing a good job. Theres a few little niggles around functionality but they are small and add to the charm really. recommend"

"Light and bright, very modern and clean. Made to feel welcome as soon as we checked in, good array of frozen meals available for those wanting to dine in. We'll stay again for sure."

"Lovely spacious house, with fantastic fire which warms it well. Great access to beach for sunsets and Hector Dolphin watching. We saw five! Good basic kiwi bach "

"Lovely place"

"It was a great little getaway, and we could imagine in summer it would be even nicer being able to enjoy the outdoor picnic spots by the pond. We arrived late in the day and were quite peckish, so enjoying a beautiful fresh loaf of bread, butter and cheese that greeted us when we arrived was lovely - along with a bottle of wine for later and a ginger beer for our young one. Even though we came in winter, the West Coast scenery and atmosphere never disappoints, and the house was lovely and cosey all through the night. It was also great to feed Frank the eel each morning - we were sad to say bye to him too!"

"Everything about this stay was ranked 5 stars! Mark & Lisa’s Balinese styled home & garden is gorgeous & although we didn’t get to try out the pizza oven or outdoor bath (in winter), the log fire in the kitchen (which was lit before our arrival) kept us warm & cosy. It is a perfect place to return to after a day exploring around Karamea & the locals are very friendly. Communications, booking & accommodation were all PREMO! Try to stay at least 3 nights - it’s worth it! "

"We had the most restful stay in this cute retro bach. Everything we needed was provided. Adored the outdoor fire and bath. The covered outdoor eating area was perfect for rainy day dining. Extremely cosy indoors with fire. Even managed a wave from the train driver passing by!!!!!Highly recommend for a getaway. "
