    Built as a show home to display the stunning hues and spicy scent of Macrocarpa timber, this country-side cottage is lavishly decked out with everything you’ll need for a luxurious stay. The stunning floor to ceiling window looks out across the picture perfect landscape, with views to Tasman Bay and D’Urville Island beyond. Native kereru, fantails, tui, bellbirds and waxeyes can be spotted in the surrounding gardens, and the studio makes the perfect place for bird lovers to watch hawks and NZ falcon sweep across the meadow below.
