Summary: This hilltop home is so beautiful and spacious, we felt relaxed straight away. Its totally private, surrounded by bush with a large living area and deck. It had everything we needed in the kitchen and toys in the carport. Really quiet and peaceful. We didnt use the car for 4 whole days just explored ohiwa and relaxed at the bach! Margo and sandee were super communicative, friendly and helpful. Beds and shower were good. The only downside was the walk up ... i considered it good fitness!
