It was great being in a rural setting but also so close to Owaka with shops & a 4 Square supermarket. This was a great base for exploring the Catlins over three days or so. The tiny house was definitely small, but it was also very modern and comfortable.

it's a wonderful place to relax in nature. Gordon and Janine are very nice hosts. We were allowed to explore the entire grounds and were able to observe and photograph many local birds. Thanks again for the great time!
