“They stayed long in Rivendell and found it hard to leave. The house was perfect whether you liked sleep, or work, or storytelling, or singing, or just sitting and thinking best, or a pleasant mixture of them all. Everyone grew refreshed and strong in a few days there. Merely to be there was a cure for weariness, fear and sadness.” - Tolkien.
Welcome to my one acre of paradise – a haven of peace and tranquility offering quality country comfort and hospitality. As a well travelled writer I am passionate about mountains, literature and local history. I enjoy cooking and gardening, and delight in sharing homegrown produce. Take time out from the Christchurch-Queenstown route and enjoy our magnificent countryside. Fishing, walking, golf, watersports or skiing nearby. Relax in the garden, complete with stream and cat, or come exploring with me. Complimentary refreshments on arrival. Dinner $50.00pp by arrangement.
