BUG Review
This small cottage sleeps up to seven in three rooms: the Blue Room, the Gold Room, and the “Sunshine Supervan”, a groovy 1950s caravan set up in the backyard. The cottage itself is cluttered but in a cosy way, filled with books and all sorts of interesting knick-knacks. Barry, the owner, is a fount of local knowledge and history. Actually, many pieces of the cottage have an interesting history of their own; the fireplace, for instance, was salvaged from the original Bank of New Zealand. The Pukeko is a swamp hen common to New Zealand, in case you were wondering.
