Although the kitchen is small the outdoor space is good and made managing meals easy. we did find there was a lack of storage space and the pantry was very full - not sure if this was left by others or the owners but we ahd rearrange things to crate space both in kitchen and bedrooms. It is well located though close to shops and the river. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Falcons Nest](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cromwell-Hotels-Falcons-Nest.h31053004.Hotel-Information) > > [Millbrook Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Millbrook-Resort.h584862.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sands Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Omapere-Hotels-The-Heads-Hokianga.h1217506.Hotel-Information) > > [Kelly Rd Cambridge Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hamilton-Hotels-Kelly-Rd-Cambridge-Lodge.h17679551.Hotel-Information) > > [Scenic Hotel Punakaiki](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Greymouth-Hotels-Punakaiki-Resort.h982476.Hotel-Information) > > [Ramada Resort By Wyndham Rotorua Marama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rotorua-Hotels-Ramada-Resort-By-Wyndham-Rotorua-Marama.h3512184.Hotel-Information) > > [The Duke of Marlborough Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Russell-Hotels-The-Duke-Of-Marlborough-Hotel.h1038082.Hotel-Information) > > [Copthorne Hotel Greymouth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Greymouth-Hotels-Kingsgate-Hotel-Greymouth.h12933.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Queenstown Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Hilton-Queenstown-Resort-Spa.h4268206.Hotel-Information) > > [Hahei Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hahei-Hotels-Hahei-Holiday-Resort.h9869496.Hotel-Information) > > [The Amberley Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amberley-Hotels-The-Amberley-Hotel.h83782595.Hotel-Information) > > [Porters Boutique Hotel & Conference Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Havelock-North-Hotels-Porters-Boutique-Hotel.h15965962.Hotel-Information) > > [Treetops Lodge & Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rotorua-Hotels-Treetops-Lodge-Estate.h912953.Hotel-Information) > > [Anglers paradise and great family holiday place](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Makarora-Hotels-Anglers-Paradise-And-Great-Family-Holiday-Place.h37278832.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Queenstown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Queenstown.h4412246.Hotel-Information) > > [Cardrona Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Cardrona-Hotel.h9629768.Hotel-Information) > > [Kinloch Wilderness Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Kinloch-Wilderness-Retreat.h3848386.Hotel-Information) > > [Richmond Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Richmond-Hotels-Richmond-Holiday-Park.h29218591.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Ridge Studios and Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Te-Anau-Hotels-Blue-Ridge-Boutique-Bed-Breakfast.h9625233.Hotel-Information) > > [Bayside Holiday Units](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitianga-Hotels-Bayside-Holiday-Units.h49101011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hidden Lake Hotel and Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hamilton-Hotels-Hidden-Lake-Hotel-And-Apartments.h29081973.Hotel-Information) > > [Distinction Heritage Gateway Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Omarama-Hotels-Heritage-Gateway-Hotel.h519242.Hotel-Information) > > [Beachfront Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitianga-Hotels-Beachfront-Resort.h6960059.Hotel-Information) > > [Rosewood Matakauri](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Matakauri-Lodge.h1097561.Hotel-Information) > > [Parkview Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/National-Park-Village-Hotels-Parkview-Apartments.h32421560.Hotel-Information) > > [Waitomo Caves Guest Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Waitomo-Caves-Hotels-Waitomo-Caves-Guest-Lodge.h16121337.Hotel-Information) > > [Te Anau Lakeview Holiday Park & Motels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Te-Anau-Hotels-Te-Anau-Lakeview-Kiwi-Holiday-Park-Motels.h4192650.Hotel-Information) > > [The Barn Cabins & Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marahau-Hotels-The-Barn-Cabins-Camping.h15886153.Hotel-Information) ---
