An Excellent Stay
Review Submitted: November 4, 2008
Date of Stay: April 2008
W stayed here in March 2008. Glen and Innes are very charming and generous hosts - they welcomed us and showed us the ropes, and then left us to enjoy their beautiful house on the Marlborough Sounds. The views from the house are spectacular, but the view from the main bedrooms really something special. There is excellent walking in the area, a lot to discover and we would thoroughly recommend it. There were only two of us, and we enjoyed the space, but it is a house meant for a family. We often think about our time there and particularly enjoyed walking part of the Queen Charlotte track. The gardens are a delight - as us the main deck area - a place for relaxing.

Owner's Response: We truly love meeting our international guests....it is so important to spend a little time with them . So very often they accept our invitation to greet them at the house , prepare a special NZ meal ,perhaps crayfish ,or rack of lamb ,then pavlova and fine local wines! A quick orientation of the area after a hearty breakfast...and then we are off to our usual home 5 hours away.
As ex geographers we enjoy offering suggestions for our guests' itinerary planning for this wonderful country.
