Michelle and Tony are awesome hosts of a lovely spacious studio ‘shed’. You are rural, so 20-30 minutes drive to local sights, but you have fantastic views, you’re surrounded by their sheep and cows and your hosts have thought of everything. They’ll assist you with day trips, restaurant and winery suggestions and anything else you’ll need. Be sure to go to the local Moutere Hills Winery, friends of Michelle and Tony, for superb Chenin Blanc and lovely reds too. From the ‘shed’, we ventured to Abel Tasman, by road up to Tataka and by boat north of Kaikerikeri, to Nelson as well as local stops in Mapua, Motueka and Kina Beach. Lovely food and view at Jellyfish in Mapua Harbour. We cannot recommend this spot or the hosts more highly.
