    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. A peaceful and relaxing place with great access to town and the many hiking and biking trails around. We visited Milford sound twice, once in the wet and the other in full sunshine - both amazing! We also did the overnight boat trip to Doubtful Sound which was fantastic! Would definitely recommend this great location to others wishing to explore the area.

    Helen and Dave were great hosts and the cottage was cozy with beautiful views of the mountains and animals. The birds singing in the morning was so joyful. Loved our stay

    Helen’s little quiet paradise was the perfect place to come home to after a day of hiking. We loved feeding the Alpacas, watching the sheep and horses and petting the rabbits. The house is private with a great patio to watch the sunset while enjoying Helen’s homemade bread with a glass of wine. We slept so well in the warm bed (with heating pads) and truly appreciated all the details and extra care this home provided. We did not want to leave!

    Great location; great welcome, with freshly baked break, juice, loaf, with jam and butter along with milk - best ever! Very sad we couldn't stay there again tonight 11 April, as we were evacuated from our Milford Track walk.

    Our family had a great time catching up and attending a wedding. Helen is a delight to deal with and the chalet was all and more. Kai is a good boy.

    We loved our short stay at the chalet - a very comfortable place in a beautiful part of the world. Helen is a fantastic host. We loved the animals and the walks, and the extras Helen provided (fresh bread, date loaf, milk, juice, etc) were very thoughtful.

    Perfect holiday home for our family. Animals were great for our five year old, particularly the ponies/pony ride. Would recommend.
