    The bach is clean, comfortable, it has all we needed and an escape from the grind of city life. There are great walks from the bach with local history. The museum is worth a visit.

    Perfect
    The communication with the owner was fast and let us check in abit earlier as our time management sucked haha but cottage was such a perfect little place. It had a portacot we could use for our babie had all utensils and only need to provide our food and linen. The river in the back was an awesome part of the stay. Location is nice and close to the museum and not far from town to stock up on tthe food. Such a nice stay would highly recommend and would definitely rebook. Wish could have stayed longer

    Fantastic place- highly recommend!
    House was very clean, radio playing on arrival was a lovely touch. The property has two nice decks depending on where the sun is. House is a decent size with one bedroom even having a portacot in it. River is at the end of the property and requires a little scramble down the bank (steps are wearing away) but was a great place to swim on a hot day. Lots of sandflies as usual on the Coast but surprisingly much less aggressive than other places. Great walks across the road and good food in town. Overall a great host and a great stay!

    Short stay in Reefton
    The cottage is comfortable and equiped well for a self catering break in Reefton. The owner responded quickly when the heat pump wouldn’t work. However, with no wifi available at this cottage we were relying on our mobile phones, unfortunately it doesn’t get any signal. So if you want to get away from modern technology this is the place for you.
