Amazing views! Great accommodation!! Lovely chickens and rooster that come to say hello in the afternoon. Definitely a better stay than in Franz Joseph. The walks and glacier were better in Fox glacier

There were no staff on arrival but soon arrived at reception once the bell was rung. Room was clean, only a small fridge but had sufficient cooking and equipment for the hob and microwave to provide a small meal. Highly recommend the walkable eatery Betsey Jane, just down the road.

The room was spacious, clean and the bed was large and comfortable. The kitchenette was suitable for cooking and the bathroom was spacious and clean. The views from the rear verandah of the snow capped mountains were awesome.
