    The location was brilliant for the start of Humpridge Track. We were able to leave our car there as well as store our other bags inside the lodge. REAL coffee was made for us in the mng and Blake was super helpful. Lovely warm communal area and loved that there were records there from back in the day… great taste in music too!! Beds were comfy and clean. Lovely hot showers too.

    We stayed in the economy accomodation with shared bathrooms and it was clean and comfortable. The organic garden is vast, providing fruit and veg for the beautiful meal we had. The couple running the lodge are friendly and attentive. A very good experience!

    Great host and ideally placed right at the start of the Humpridge track. We booked a room with a queen bed and another with 4 bunks, both were very comfortable. Clean and tidy with good facilities. Good car park right beside the lodge to leave your car in while walking the track.

    Relaxing and remote , close to the Humpridge track. Quiet and private. the Lodge room were self contained and most comfortable. We had cooked breakfast for an additional cost with a lovely view of the ocean.

    Lovely home in Tuatapere. Perfect for walking the Hump Ridge Track. Great breakfast provided, despite our very early start! Host even helped to book us in for dinner at the Last Light Lodge, which was brilliant.

    Although the room didn't have a fridge or kitchenette, the lodge breakfast room was open and available with all the facilities needed. Stunning views over the coast and a friendly host.
