You won't find friendlier hosts in all New Zealand! Beautiful grounds, great kitchen accommodations.

I am French. I visited this backpacker. I would like to thank Maureen, the charming manager, for the hostel. She did everything to make life easier on the spot for us. The landscape is splendid. If you go there, tell Maureen that I will forget her kindness and courtesy. Do not hesitate to go there. It is pure happiness!!!
