“Lovely interior that warmed up fast on the cold days. Had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Out of Invercargill but close enough to drive in each day, if you want a bit of a break from town.”

“A very cute little 1 bed accommodation. Owners were lovely and communication was great. We were there during a storm which caused a bit of banging around at night but the owner happily came over to rectify the next day. .”

Discover the gorgeous landscape that surrounds this place to stay. 5 minutes from Invercargill airport, 5 minutes to Oreti Beach, and only 10 minutes to the centre of Invercargill city.
Surrounded by some of NZ's finest examples of native dune totara bush, multiple bush walks on the doorstep. Wake up to the sounds of bellbirds, tuis, the woosh of wood pigeons, and the curious, friendly fantails.
