Truly "wacky" experience which was exactly whay we were looking for. Ultra-prepped "room" with all amenities for a prolonged visit. Infortunately we only had one night.
A fantastic wee spot just moments outside Kaikoura. The wagon is truely sensational to stay in with incredible views over Mt Fyffe. We really enjoyed feeding the animals with our 23 month old son.
