    Such a peaceful location with stunning mountain views.

    Such a peaceful location with stunning mountain views. Had a great night with the other guests chatting around the dining table. Unfortunately I grabbed a bite to eat before arriving and missed the amazing dinner they were having but was able to enjoy a few glasses of wine and their company. The bed was so comfortable and much appreciated after my all day trip from Wellington. Woke up to the sound of bird song and the distant moo of a cow. The view of the sun rising over Mount Adam from the lounge with fresh coffee in hand set the tone for the rest of my day. Breakfast was generous, hearty and delicious. Much, much better than a Motel stay and felt more like visiting friends.
