## About this property
### Entire place
You'll have the entire cottage to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
### Cosy cottage in the Grey Valley close to Paparoa Range Great Walk & Pike River.
Situated up the Grey Valley just 5kms from the historical township of Blackball you will find the Dredge Masters's B&B. It has been transformed into a very cosy, comfortable cottage with all the comforts of home. You will be surrounded by the Paparoa Ranges, our own native bush and the song of the birds. Whether you are visiting the coast for the walking and mountain bike tracks or just to escape life, this is the place to relax.
Enjoy sundowners on the deck and watch the stars come out at night as you cook up a storm on the weber bbq. In the morning you will be entertained with the birdsong from native birds such as Tuis and Bellbirds and the cheeky Wekas who will no doubt come to say hello. Just a short walk from our property is Blackball Creek where there is a lovely spot for swimming in crystal clear water.
We are conveniently situated between the Paparoa Great Walk and the new Pike River Memorial track and a short drive to places like Blackball, Ikamatua, Waiuta and Greymouth.

#### Excellent stay
This was a comfortable cozy home that gave us the break away we were looking for. A quiet setting with plenty of games for the kids and blackball close by we had plenty to do. Our hosts provided immediate responses to any questions and were really friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back again.
