Summary: A well aged puzzle piece bach, in NZ forest, tucked down a dead end road. Surprising amount of traffic on the road during our stay. Neighbours were quite noisy also but the bach had everything we needed. Hot water for a shower was a bonus. The old Shacklock range is prone to smoking out the bach but I think we figured it out after a few days. Reliable cell service is back at the Orwell Creek Road turnoff, for those wondering. For a last minute booking, it worked out well and appreciate the good communication from Brent. Review by ‘All Others’.

Summary: This was the cutest little property in such an amazing spot we LOVED it! Couldn't recommend this place enough and even better with having no power or cell service for a break from today's world. We didn't want to leave.

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay at the hut which is surrounded by native bush and next to a good sized stream. There was plenty of bird life, incuding regular visits by a couple of South Island robins and a big wood pigeon. Bell birds and Tuis often rang out nearby. Brent was a great host, friendly and accommodating. We were sad to leave, would absolutely stay again.
