What a beautiful, quiet spot looking out over the forest! Lovely host, spotless and delightful cabin, and a short walk to the river to swim.

Nice, relaxing get away in a remote area, definitely recommend to couples wanting to get away for a nice tranquil escape surrounded in flora, no service/screen's holiday, highly recommend.
A very well made and looked after cabin in the middle of the bush, with everything you need! We had a very comfortable stay and loved the bushwalk down to the river. Very friendly hosts and sweet doggies too! We’ll definitely come back (and will bring more mozzie/sandfly repellent!)

Super well stocked off grid cabin, overlooking a valley. Hammocks and bbq on deck with lots of cooking supplies. Cabin is beautifully decorated with books and games. Trails down to the river and a beautiful look out spot! Sunset - gorgeous! Really loved it! Host warm and friendly and has a home close by. One of my favorite stays on the South Island!
A great combination of privacy, off-grid, cosy, and in nature on one hand, and ... all the facilities you need, and host advice and connection if you want / need that on the other.
Quiet, peaceful, restorative, while all being very accessible! Highly recommended (and I'm looking forward to getting back again)!
Totally awesome place would go back in a heart beat we had a great time as there is plenty to do in that area.
Just one thing, take plenty of mosquito repellent as you will need it. However apart from that this place has everything you will ever need so we would highly recommend a stay their.
Exactly as presented, spotlessly clean and a wonderful place to stay. Wonderful hosts, the property was easy to find and peaceful place to sleep. Every need was met, including a surprising box full of spices, oil, and vinegars (and every type pots and pans) to cook up a storm on the bbq and whatever foods you can easily buy 15 minutes away in Westport. No problems with mozzies or sand flies at all, DEET spray does wonders. It is a pity we had to move on to the next stay quickly due to a family calendar, the area has a lot to see and hopefully we will be back soon and spend more time. Best wishes dear hosts, and please give a pat to those gentle dogs that kept checking we were OK while the bbq was cooking :)
Pretty much just as described. I was a bit disappointed that the trail to the stream sounded a little too rough to navigate. I guess there was a rainfall a few days earlier and she recommended not doing it. I was hoping for more of a view from the mountain hut but you did have a near view of the bush. The manager/owner was very informative and present. The bed was extremely comfortable. The bathroom and shower was clean and functional and only about 20 yards away.
there is something very special about this place, the views from hut are incredible and really enjoyed have some space to myself and will go back for another break again in the future!
Beautiful piece of paradise.
Great host.
Comfortable clean and very peaceful spot to stay.

Beautiful little cottage nestled in amongst the bush, the photos just do not do this place justice! We were blown away with the owner’s hospitality and would 10/10 recommend.

A beautiful, relaxing setting. The hut has a super comfortable bed. A wonderful night’s sleep.
We loved everything about staying at Beaconstone. The walk to the West Coast river, the sweat little lodge, outdoor kitchen. Loved it.

It was off the grid, but not far from town. Unique and the view in the evening was stunning. We are definitely placing this spot on our recommendation list to stop.Thank you LeeAnne 😀
