Teapot Cottage (50's time-warp)
STEP BACK IN TIME into our charming 1950's "grandma's cottage", a LIVING MUSEUM of a simpler era, before tvs, microwaves and computers. No WiFi, so UNPLUG and ENJOY the authentic vintage memorabilia and cosy fire. WALK the beautiful Hari Hari Coastal Walkway or TAKE A DAY TRIP - 50 mins south to Glaciers, 50 mins north to Hokitika. EXPLORE natural HOT-SPRINGS within a short drive and walk or SOAK and STARGAZE in the cottage garden FIRE-BATH with stunning farm/bush/mountain views.
Heaps of classic books, board games, puzzles, and vintage dress-ups for those wet West Coast days. Kid-friendly - cot, highchair, toys, swings and bikes. An authentic cottage with old-fashioned quirks, such as woolen carpets and a bathroom just outside, through the laundry.
2 kms from Hari Hari village, in an area of great hiking, fishing, hunting, lake swimming and boating.
Natural Hot Springs in the riverbed just a 5 minute drive and 15 minute walk away - one of the Coast's best kept secrets.
