Activities in Hokitika
The West Coast of New Zealand is full of adventure for visitors of all walks of life. Adrenaline junkies have the option of getting on taking to the air on a helicopter ride to experience a close-up of the world-famous glaciers. If you're looking for an adventure without the adrenaline, check out the local walks, cycleways, golf course, and Westland Heritage park to fill your cup before you return home. It is the best of both worlds

What our other guests had to say
Best value gem in Hokitika Excellent hosts, very impressive property that is surrounded by native bush and birdsong. Loved the well appointed beautiful big room with in-room tea and coffee facilities and fridge and a cosy fire downstairs to drink red wine by. Breakfast was excellent. Very good...

Absolutely gorgeous place to stay and such lovely hosts. We wish we had longer stay. Every spec seems to have been thought of and of high quality. Place was so tranquil and approach to the reception sets the mood as you get drive through an idyllic driveway. 10/10
